However, in the case the package gets removed from tree, an updates based approach would allow the dependencies to be cleaned up long after the package itself is gone. And this proves useful, because one of the questions people tend to ask ( or should ) when experiencing problems is "did you sync lately". If they did sync lately, our best attempts at fixing their bug is employed. -- Kent *KENTNL* - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL
