Bug#488237: lsb-base: useless package dependencies

Having the explicit dependencies on essential packages was still sort of 
useful to demonstrate what packages provided the LSB components. Also 
without them suppose an unlisted dependency becomes no longer essential 
then that will introduce a bug in the LSB support.

Long ago there existed a document that mapped the required LSB components 
to the packages that provide them (in some cases multiple implementations). 
I don't know if that still exists somewhere but would be useful to have as 
well.
