Hi Magnus,
Once package FOO is installed, and linked to local versions of its dependencies, there is not much we can do to prevent that an update to FOO's dependencies breaks the *local* system if it's upgraded.
Why can't we bump $pkgrel of those packages that depend on FOO?
Um, sorry, I was confused for a moment. I meant to say, of course, why can't we bump the $pkgrel of FOO whenever one of its dependencies is updated? Wouldn't that remedy this problem? Take care, Peter
