I can expand on this question:
* If you care about the build graph, the --dep-graph provides the answer
* If you instead want to know what is already installed and what not,
  that is a different question and often arises in operations

(eg. how many of the ictce/5.3.0 easyconfigs are already delivered?)

Think of your package manager reporting on a "Bioinfo-tools" metapackage,
how many of its deps are already satisfied and how many need to be built.

I think this could be called -n "dry-run" , ala rsync style, no?
(but perhaps you are already doing that in some other manner)

tia,
Fotis
