Hi

I often build BLFS-based systems for special purposes, either for myself or 
clients. No two are ever the same, dammit.

I script the build to X11. But thereafter,anything can happen. 

I spend far too much time tracing dependencies. Every package I install brings 
required and recommended dependencies (I always install recommended deps) And 
of course those dependencies have dependencies and so on, almost without limit. 
These deps might be thought of as in "generations" or levels; the deepest I 
have bothered to record so far is 10 levels.

I want - I need - a method for finding all the dependencies of a package, 
preferably in one of the orders they should be installed.

And so, to the point: is any such tool around? Or do I have to fire up php yet 
again?

TIA
Gabe
