 From the README, the install instructions are now simply:

    $ cd /usr/local/lib/ikarus

    $ bzr branch lp:~ikarus-libraries-team/ikarus-libraries/srfi

    $ git clone git://github.com/dharmatech/agave.git

So let's take the above as an example. Agave has a dependency on Derrick's srfi project. Let's assume that Derrick has already registered with the community library registry and the project name is simply 'srfi'. I *could* install it by itself as:

    $ epcot srfi

But, in this case, the metadata for agave will list 'srfi' as a dependency. So all I need to do is:

    $ epcot agave

Nice thing about abstracting over various DVC systems is that things analagous to "update to latest" or "revert to latest" we get for free.
