Could we please change our default policy to always include direct dependencies (checked from readelf output) even if another dependency already pulls them?
So listing every single package that contains a library that is being linked to... Apart from being annoying to maintain (especially if we add versioning to them as well), that would really increase the amount of work pacman has to do in dependency checking. e.g. for subversion there is currently two dependencies, but even only considering /usr/bin/svn there would be 10x more than that.
Okay, then how we currently check that subversion needs to be rebuilt on db or heimdal soname bump? -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
