What you're writing here is the *very* reason *why* I'm angry that the
dependence exist.
You need to put yourself int he shoes of a new bugzilla users.
He does not know what is important or not to install, but he wants to be
able to test all features without having to come back to the install
stage later because he after all needs on of those optional packages.
So he starts with "install-module.pl", and tries to solve every problem
that he has, without spending spending time for each module to try to
understand why exactly it's needed. And most of the time he'll end up
stuck trying to make the Image magic package work without success.
