juliank, I think the way we report dependencies during upgrades or installs is overwhelming users, it would be better to only show dependencies that involved a decision (decision other than current state).
Consider A depends B|C, B has depends D, E; C depends F.
We should format the solutions as A, B and 2 more dependencies
(instead of A,B,D,E)
A, C and 1 more dependencies
(instead of A,C)Because the user cares about what choices the package manager made, not which libraries those choices need.
