But if you use this tool, scmbrowser, the dependencies follow. So the suggestion is, I don't want to use this tool, I want to manually download scms individually, then I want to use this tool to fix things up?
OK. But seems backwards to me, as you are eventually using the tool that you didn't choose to use.

Given the current direction that scms are being used, I would agree. I will make such adjustment.

No. What I'm saying is that installing l3afpad.scm gtk3.scm is not installed, neither Xorg-7-6-libs.tcz by ScmBrowser. It can be an issue of l3afpad.scm don't know. Try it on a stock 4.3rc2

roberts:
Reposted Xlibs.tcz and Xprogs.tcz with small update for writable tce check. Will be rolled into next cut.

AbNoRMiS:
dear roberts
may be better if to place the scm separately from tcz, as in the repository, rather than simply a bunch?
for example /tce/applications (or /tce/programs) and /tce/optional
when they in large numbers would be easier to find out what applications are downloaded,
and  if uninstall an application that doesn't need more, easier to find and remove it
(without removing any extra files due to the extremely unfortunate set of circumstances :) )
also it seems to me that it will be more convenient when updating applications and packages via ftp

p.s.
sorry for offtopic, but pity that the wget option --timestamp was not included in appbrowser initially
