  It is usually believed that there are no perturbative anomalies in
supersymmetric gauge theories beyond the well-known chiral anomaly. In this
paper we revisit this issue, because previously given arguments are incomplete.
Specifically, we rule out the existence of soft anomalies, i.e., quantum
violations of supersymmetric Ward identities proportional to a mass parameter
in a classically supersymmetric theory. We do this by combining a previously
proven theorem on the absence of hard anomalies with a spurion analysis, using
the methods of Algebraic Renormalization. We work in the on-shell component
formalism throughout. In order to deal with the nonlinearity of on-shell
supersymmetry transformations, we take the spurions to be dynamical, and show
how they nevertheless can be decoupled.
