OK, so docbook-utils definitely needs texlive-collection-formatsextra, which is 
what I hoped to avoid.  In that case, it's probably not worth checking whether 
it needs the other dependencies of texlive-collection-htmlxml.

And jadetex needs texlive-collection-fontsrecommended for marvosym, so I need to 
fix the dependencies of texlive-collection-formatsextra.  I'll do that shortly.

Thanks for reporting the problem.
