There is not a strict dependency between these, most parts of these 
toolboxes can be used independently. There is only a very small overlap, 
namely
   inst/sumskipnan.m
   inst/covm.m
   src/sumskipnan_mex.mex
   src/covm_mex.mex

One could make another small package (e.g. SkipNaN) out of this subset, 
and define the dependency against this newly introduced package. 
However, I'm hesitant to do this because users would need to download 
two instead of one package, and the SkipNaN-functions are only useful in 
combination with TSA- or NaN-tb.


What's happening if both packages are loaded?

These functions are exactly the same in both packages, so it does not 
matter which is installed first.
