dependent :-).
Yes, but the current Sage build (and upgrade) process doesn't really
reflect this... ;-)
(We use {{{make}}}, but {{{sage-spkg}}} usually just reports a dependent
package was already installed; our current scheme lacks version
requirements almost completely.)
For the ''rebuild dependent packages on upgrade'' issue, there's #9896
(needs review; not limited to MacOS X). :)
