As a matter of fact, such a request (split exfalso from quodlibet) was
already made before (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32338), and was
rejected because exfalso has to depends on most of the libs from
quodlibet. However, the two packages don’t have the same dependencies,
and that’s why a split package make sense to me. Should I reopen the the
issue or continue with my AUR package?

Thanks,

Bruno
