Well, transfig users should think twice what functionality they expect - perhaps libreoffice-draw is good enough :)
It's no problem with solver.onlyRequires = true. I have transfig
installed (don't no what pulled it in actually) and only 118 texlive
packages.
IMO the problem is:
1) transfig requires texlive-epstopdf
2) texlive-epstopdf requires texlive
3) texlive recommends texlive-scheme-medium
4) texlive-scheme-medium would pull in the rest of the packages (979
on my system) via requires.
Neither 1) nor 2) make sense to me. They could both be recommends,
AFAICS. The rest is ok (although it might be worth discussing whether
texlive should rather recommend the "small" or "basic" scheme).

Martin
