[pacman-dev] Mirrorlist as Dependency

All,

I was wondering whether it would be perhaps closer to KISS and/or more
logically coherent not to have pacman-mirrorlist as a dependency of pacman.
You don't actually need the mirrors to use pacman, and if you maintain a
local mirror or build your own packages with ABS, /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
just gets in the way and/or becomes cruft.

Thoughts?
