Recursive dep file example

[bmarkus]

Lets see an example, how recursive dep files look in 2.10 I will use hal.tcz as an example.

The old fashioned hal.tcz.dep file lists all extensions rerquired:

expat2.tcz
glib2.tcz
dbus.tcz
dbus-glib.tcz
libpci.tcz
pci-utils.tcz
libusb.tcz
usb-utils.tcz
udevadm.tcz
acl.tcz

The new hal.tcz.dep is:

dbus-glib.tcz
pci-utils.tcz
usb-utils.tcz
udevadm.tcz

libpci.tcz and libusb.tcz are listed in pci-utils.tcz.dep and usb-utils.tcz.dep therefore no need for them here, will be loaded by appbrowser due to pci-utils.tcz.dep and usb-utils.tcz.dep Similarly expat2.tcz, glib2.tcz and dbus.tcz will be loaded due to dbus-glibc.tcz.dep; acl.tcz is also removed as it is a dependency of udevadm.

Now hal.tcz.dep is more informative, as it lists only the real dependencies.

I do`nt know how you guys have programmed 2.10, but hope the duplicate dependecies ( dependent ext required by 2 or more exts ), wo`nt cause any problem while loading recursive deps thru AB.
In normal case, AB flash the message - `ext already loaded !`

It is not a problem. AB works fine with the current dep files too, where commonly used extensions are listed many times. Tested and works fine for example whith rhythmbox.tcz.dep corrected but all other extensions left as they are. Original rhythmbox.tcz.dep:
