Your patch seems very close to what I would expect. I think the granular dependency fix is the way to go otherwise we start to grow the rootfs size and it will be a very difficult thing to fix in long term. We should avoid this at any cost or we end build a bloated system... not what we are looking for. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
