You can ignore that again.. That pactest is broken, pkg2 is required by pkg3, but requiredby field of pkg2 is empty. Sorry.. By adding lp2.requiredby = [ "pkg3" ] , it works fine.
But that's actually the problem. checkdeps use the requiredby fields, but there is no requiredby fields for sync packages, only for local ones.
I wonder if the requiredby fields couldn't be updated while doing the checkdeps / resolvedeps stuff, and then commit these changes to the database when the transaction is done, instead of computing requiredby again in the update_requiredby and update_depends functions. I don't think that's easy to do however. Maybe just adding the list of packages to be installed as an arg of checkdeps would be good enough, even if it looks a little hackish.
