One thought: maybe we can have a 'virtual dependency" that more than one package can satisfy? the USES stuff seems to be heading in that direction. Maybe someone who knows more about it can tell us more about it? I'd also like to see packages have more htan one way to install, to give the same effect as the linux -devel and regular packages. pkg install --runtime vs pkg install --devel (and I'd like to see a --minimal, no docs, examples etc.) Each would have their own depednencies as well, probably building up from minimal->runtime->devel
