By the way, I recently cleaned up the lists of linker dependencies among the
libraries we build (issue 99519), so *that* source of unnecessary module
dependencies should be relatively clean nowadays.

Removed dependency on tools in cli_ure

Removed dependencies on sandbox, cpputools, remotebridges, stoc, io, unoil,
cli_ure in odk.
ODK builds fine without them

Some external libraries had a build dependency on sal just because uwinapi is
part of sal and it is linked to every windows library by default if a
makefile.mk is used.
This is a stupid dependency and it is better resolved by undefining UWINAPIDLL
in the makefile.mk of the external libraries so that they no longer link against
uwinapi.dll. I removed the dependency for 
    * hunspell
    * hyphen
    * libtextcat
    * libxmlsec
    * lpsolve
    * msfontextract
    * redland
    * xpdf
If the patchfile contained a makefile.mk for linking the dll I adjusted the patch.

As berkeleydb currently is updated, I postponed the fix for this libary until
the CWS with the update is integrated.

I removed a superfluous dependency of berkeleydb on xml2cmp

Removed superfluous dependencies in agg (sal, xml2cmp)

svx and forms had some stupid dependencies on ucb, fileaccess and configmgr. I
removed them, of course without a problem.

I removed the dependency on officecfg in setup_native

Removed dependency on uui ino binfilter, dbaccess, desktop, extensions, sc, sd,
sw. Added dependency on uui to postprocess.

removed dependency on sal from berkeleydb by not linking it against uwinapi anymore

removed dependency of cppunit on sal by moving all sal dependent parts to
testshl2. All auto tests have been adjusted

removed linkage against STLPORT in all soltools except makedepend
needs further improvement

removed perl dependency in soldep

Moved wiki export filter to mwiki extension in swext, removed depedency of swext
on filter

cleaned all dependencies on office libraries in sdext except for pdfimport

Missing dependency on soltools added to cppunit, hyphen, libtextcat

All modules using dmake makefile *must* depend on soltools!

Removed dependency on readlicense_oo from dictionaries. Dicts have their own
license files, so luckily we don't need the OOo license here.

I removed the dependency of xmlhelp on svtools by replacing the usage of
SvtMiscOptions by direct usage of the Configuration API

I also removed the dependency on unotools in xmlhelp by using Configuratio API
directly

moved kde_headers.h from vcl to shell as shell shouldn't depend on vcl (but no
problem having it the other way around)

code in linguistic was reworked to get rid of sfx2 dependency

sdi processing now works without ilb files, only with sdi files (no sideeffects
by building multiple targets in one rule)

svtools has been split up. Code not depending on vcl has been moved to a new
library "svl". Some vcl code has been replaced to move even more code to svl. A
new tools::SolarMutex class has been added that gives access to the SolarMutex
without linking against vcl.

some files have even been moved to unotools, mainly to be able to use them in
vcl also without adding a new dependency in vcl.

now several libs (inguistic, lingucomponent, connectivity, xmloff) don't need
svtools anymore.

xmloff still used vcl, this has been fixed by moving these parts (font
conversion, font enums, mapunit) to tools and svl.

+me

Fixed dependencies in soltools: no dependency on stlport anymore.
Can now be moved into a "prerequisites" module that doesn't have any external
dependencies.

Removed sandbox module as it seems to be not in use anymore.
For now this will be enough; we now have a build that can be split into several
pieces without cross build dependencies.

verified in cws master repository

A split built showed that removing the dependency of soltools on stlport created
a problem: now modules that themselves depend on soltools and stlport but only
have soltools in their build.lst can't be built from scratch. It worked by luck
until now, but now it's broken. Fixed that for agg, libegg, cppunit.

close issue.
