Why am I suddenly seeing that MySQL has a dependency on snort? that seems kind of odd... sorry if it's been answered--I tried to search but it said both "mysql" and "snort" were too common!

Code:

Updating:
 mysql                    i386      5.0.84-1.el5.art          atomic      3.3 M
 mysql-libs               i386      5.0.84-1.el5.art          atomic      1.8 M
 mysql-server             i386      5.0.84-1.el5.art          atomic       10 M
Installing for dependencies:
 libnet10                 i386      1.0.2a-17.el5.art         atomic       40 k
 libprelude               i386      0.9.21.2-1.el5.art        atomic      599 k
 snort                    i386      2.8.3.2-4.el5.art         atomic      1.9 M
 snort-snmp+flexresp      i386      2.8.3.2-4.el5.art         atomic      355 k

Is snort installed on the box already? Its not a dependency in the mysql rpm

I also saw yum trying to sneak in snort today on a box that did not have snort installed already (so it wasn't an upgrade). A 'yum clean all' and another try fixed it.
