from my fc4 box
repoquery --whatrequires --alldeps --repoid=development
  --repoid=extras-development goffice
goffice-0:0.1.2-4.fc5.i386
gnumeric-1:1.6.1-3.i386
goffice-devel-0:0.1.2-3.i386

Looks to me like there are no other packages in Extras which hang on goffice.

I've no comment about how to handle this.
