It's more than annoying it's needless software that I don't have a need for. Below is the only info available as to why I must install this thing:

That's because it is probably already installed because it was a dependency for something or other. I've been frustrated by this for years having to install support for stuff I don't have like ISDN, bluetooth, palm utilities, etc. Heck, SaX even has a dependency for the intel 915 chipset, which was never available on a mac. When you get right down to it, it's not just openSUSE's devs. It also has to do with the dependencies that the authors feel the need to impose.
