Stephan,

Can you take this to answers.ros.org?  And in that question there can you
tell us what version of ROS you are using?

I do not get the same behavior as you:

∫ rospack depends geometry_msgs
> cpp_common
> rostime
> roscpp_traits
> roscpp_serialization
> genmsg
> genpy
> message_runtime
> std_msgs

P.S. in the future please follow the getting help guidelines:

Thanks,
