That depends on one's definition of "dependency". ;-) One could mean: - A dependency means that one package *requires* another in order to work at *all* (hard dependency); or - A dependency means that package A will not be useful unless package B is also installed (soft dependency). Frank is using the second definition; my opinion (and the typical sense of dependency with regard to package management) is that the first definition is more usual. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. |
