Read the comments in the pull request: https://github.com/fink/fink/pull/117
<https://github.com/fink/fink/pull/117> . Maybe subscribe to it, too.

aggregate list of dependencies for a _whole batch build_ rather than whether it
is a dependency of an individual package. The latter is what is needed.
