You're right, but I forgot about the pear list command (and we went
over this often enough when you released H4).

Funny that..

mail:/usr/share/horde-beta# /usr/share/horde-beta/pear/pear -c
/usr/share/horde-beta/pear.conf install horde/Horde_Db
horde/Horde_Db is already installed and is the same as the released
version 2.0.0alpha1
install failed

I do see your point.  In fact, my point is the same - And I didn't say
I wanted a mandatory dependency.  I consciously opted not to install
or use the DataTree this time because of the warnings on the list
about it being depreciated.  It's not like this is a full install -
it's IMP and Turba only.

That wasn't a rant, and neither is this. Given your eloquently
expressed point above, I just think it would be nice for
non-developers to be able to figure out what packages/features cause
and fulfil which dependencies.  For example, I have no interest in
LDAP.  I know that, because it's my system.  Therefore, I don't
install it and I certainly don't want installed because I have not
enough information to install the packages I do want and have to run
--alldeps.  I'm simply saying it would be nice to have a list that
says if you want this feature you'll need this package.  I would
create this documentation for the project myself, but since I don't
know what package installs which feature, I'm sure you see the flaw.
