Hi,
I am a bit curious on how installing plugins that depend on a certain
program.
Lets asume we have program A (e.g. Firefox), program B (Java) and
program C (IE) and all of these installers cannot handle updates, i.e.
you have to deinstall the old version and install the new version.
Program B is a plugin for A and C.
Now for program A a new securiry update is released. The manual way
would be to deinstall old version of A, deinstall actual version of B,
install new version of A and install B again.
How can this be managed intelligently by wpkg?
There is some patch which adds dependencies, I didn't test it though.
It's available here:

If you don't want to use it, you can try something like this:
- remove A from profile,
- remove B from profile,
- install A-new (add it to the profile),
- install B-new (add it to the profile, it can be the same as B).
