Fedora DMD package

[Russel Winder via Digitalmars-d]

Is there a good reason why the dmd Fedora 20 package pulls in the
following as dependencies:

 cyrus-sasl-lib        i686          2.1.26-14.fc20        fedora
152 k
 glibc-devel           i686          2.18-12.fc20          updates
1.0 M
 libcurl               i686          7.32.0-10.fc20        updates
225 k
 libidn                i686          1.28-2.fc20           fedora
209 k
 libssh2               i686          1.4.3-9.fc20          updates
133 k
 nspr                  i686          4.10.5-1.fc20         updates
124 k
 nss                   i686          3.16.1-1.fc20         updates
878 k
 nss-softokn           i686          3.16.1-1.fc20         updates
311 k
 nss-util              i686          3.16.1-1.fc20         updates
68 k
 openldap              i686          2.4.39-2.fc20         updates
335 k

OK, I can perhaps see why glibc-devel, but the rest? And why i686
packages on an x86_64 machine?

Thanks.
