Issue #2780 has been updated by Luke Kanies.

Status changed from Needs design decision to Rejected

I actually like the idea, but I think Brice is right that a definition is 
probably the right approach for now.

I think if we can come up with a clever way to specify when to do this 
automatic association and when not to, we should add it, but until that 
inspiration is reached leave it to people to figure out on their own.

Feature #2780: auto dependencies should be created between related packages, 
services, and files
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2780

Author: Dan Bode
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: Luke Kanies
Category: 
Target version: 
Affected version: 0.25.1
Keywords: 
Branch: 


Feel free to file this under crazy request...

I got this idea from Volcanes blog.

The following pattern is very common:

install package
then config files which notify service and require package
then start/enable services

maybe there is a way to just build this into the language? maybe by creating 
auto dependencies between packages, services, and config files that have the 
same name/alias (which I guess wouldnt work if there was more than one config 
file)

maybe this feature should be set as a metaparam (autodeppackage) that 
determines rather or not to create these dependencies.
