I'm not a guru at all in shell programming, so I won't go in details 
here, but maybe CheckDepencencies could just fill in some env variable 
(GOBO_<PROGRAM>_DEPENDENCIES?) which then Compile (or any other gobo 
script) could read to do what it needs to do. I honestly don't know if 
it could be done and how much it would require to be put in Scripts, 
just my two cents :)
