It does have a dependency....as seth just explained.

you can see the dependency another way.. on a F7 system do:
rpm -e --test vte
outputs to stderr:
error: Failed dependencies:
        libvte.so.9 is needed by (installed) rhgb-0.17.6-1.fc7.i386
        libvte.so.9 is needed by (installed) gnome-terminal-2.18.0-1.fc7.i386

there IS a dependency, there's absolutely no question about that. The
question is what's going wrong on your system that allowed rhgb to be
installed without vte.  As seth suggests, you make have more missing
dependencies than you realize.
