Visual J# .NET Redistributable Package

So I just installed the WinFx Feb CTP along with Orcas and all that great stuff. For some reason I ended up in the Add/Remove programs control panel applet and I noticed this J# package sitting there taking up about 100MB of space on my virtual hard disk, so I removed it given that I never plan to even LOOK at a line of J#...

And now I try to create an empty solution in VS 2005. An empty solution. And look at this error. Can you believe this?

Is it just me, or is this a really stupid dependency?

EDIT: After pressing OK, you are asked whether you want to remove the dependency on the J# package. If you click Yes, you won't get this again. Whew :)

I had the same experience. But I ended up clicking Yes every time I opened VS. I eventually reinstalled this stupid dependency just to avoid the constant warnings.
