Summary: feature request: show when a dependency is "only" for a development
dependency
Initial Comment:
Situation: Currently when one uninstalls a gem with a development dependency,
the following is output:
C:\installs\ruby191p376\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems\redcar-0.3.3>gem uninstall
gemcutter
You have requested to uninstall the gem:
gemcutter-0.5.0
jeweler-1.4.0 depends on [gemcutter (>= 0.1.0)]
win32console-1.3.0 depends on [gemcutter (>= 0.3.0)]
If you remove this gems, one or more dependencies will not be met.
Continue with Uninstall? [Yn]
Originally when I see this, I am surprised to see that things has a dependency
on gemcutter, but later discover they are "just" development dependencies,
which is not surprising.
Feature request: on uninstall dependency warning, note if the dependency is
"only" a development one. ex something like:
C:\installs\ruby191p376\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems\redcar-0.3.3>gem uninstall
gemcutter
You have requested to uninstall the gem:
gemcutter-0.5.0
win32console-1.3.0 depends on [gemcutter (>= 0.3.0)] (development dependency)
If you remove this gems, one or more dependencies will not be met.
Continue with Uninstall? [Yn]
That's all.
Thanks.
