Using -> as an indication of dependency, it turns out:
python26 -> tk -> Xft2 -> xrender -> xorg-libX11 -> xorg-libxcb -> xorg-
xcb-proto -> python26
So there is a circular dependency making everything in the chain and
anything that depends on something in that chain uninstallable. In my
case, that is git-core.
