--dry-run is the option.
Or you can use any of the following option to print
-s, --simulate, --just-print, --dry-run, --recon, --no-act
So,
*sudo apt-get install --dry-run expect | sed -n '/The following NEW packages
will be installed/,/upgraded/p'*
Will print dependency of a package.
Also, apt-cache do not print the actual dependency. I mean
Actual dependency resolution. It just print what is written in package.
