 Replying to [comment:12 Snark]:
 > Your patch doesn't solve the problem of lying dependencies. Those
 packages don't depend on each other, so the deps file must not say
 otherwise.
 Your patch also lies about the dependencies, it just does so implicitly
 rather than explicitly. As far as I know, you can't force the
 linearization without either implicitly or explicitly specifying a
 dependency. I think the cleaner solution is to use explicit dependencies
 to force the linearization, but to keep these separate from the real
 dependencies.
