The guide is where things should be documented. I don't know if all of this is
already there. I'm guessing not, since there seems to have been so much
confusion about it.
I don't spend as much time as maybe I should in updating the guide. For one
thing, it's written in docbook XML, which is a pain to modify. Rainer worked on
converting it to asciidoc which should be easier to edit once that conversion
is finalized. The other problem is that I don't like most of the guide content
and its organization so it's very hard to go modify or add just one part since
in the process of doing that I see everything else that's wrong and become
overwhelmed.

Well yeah. Changing a dependency is the same as adding a dependency and
removing another, which change the registry, which requires a revbump.
