I haven't seen any responses to my package-deps thinking. I'm hoping that's because everyone read it and said to themselves, "Wow, this Allen fellow is an utter genius: How profoundly correct he is! ". Yeah, right. OK, here's the SRPM of my current state. http://nersp.osg.ufl.edu/~asr/media/R2spec-2.6.0-asr.src.rpm When I run that against ggplot2, I get a "broad" dependency graph of 152 packages. That's the list of packages that "should" be installed to be able to R CMD CHECK all the packages, recursively. That fact, the recursive Suggests graph, is why I think any tool that builds a single spec needs to do the math; because there's no way we can CHECK a package without doing it. - Allen S.
