It's nice indeed, and I've been tempted more than once to (ab)use execute checks like this. Unfortunately this also clutters the logs with error messages, which IMHO shows it's a hack indeed. I do miss conditional dependencies once in a while...e.g. a dependency that is fulfilled if at least/at most one of a list of packages is installed. Or a dependency that is only triggered under some circumstances. Something along the lines of boolean chec conditions for building the dependency tree. Regards, Malte |
