"Require" works on the top level package but the thing is so nested I
will end up with errors at the next level.

I just needed a quick temporary work around. In this thread, I
discovered a third option that works for me.

Problem definition
How to make easy use of some private subs in a package when the
package requires many dependencies.

Workarounds
1. install all dependencies
2. copy and paste subs inline
3. use fully qualified package name 

Option 3 works best but I have to comment out some code that I do not
need in the package and its dependencies. This is not a problem
because these changes are temporary. Doing so allows me to write my
script in the exact syntax needed with less hassles than Options 1 and
2. I will definitely rollback the packages once I am done.

I like it. Thank you.
