Good point, make sense, current is really confusing.

Although I liked the brevity of current form (one liner is nice), fixing false positives
justify it enough. The same look and feel with help and reusing code makes are also pros.

Just one change: keep error on the same line as 'WARNING:':
	str_printf(&gs, "\nWARNING: Unmet direct dependencies detected for %s\n",
It's make easier to grep error and save space vertically.
