quite right that this is a shortcoming of the system. I tried to make
it take binary dependencies into account, but then I noticed that I
would have to handle Provided/Depends, and reverted. I did not think of
this particular problem with non-library dependencies, so the variant
that only works with non-libraries is still useful, thanks!

I take it that this was the cause for Alexandre’s hspec problem?

Greetings,
Joachim
