Yes, that's how it's done. > Maybe listing the dependency of each module would be nicer than the > current alphabetic list Listing the dependencies of each module would lead to a much bigger output (think of how often 'stdint' or 'unistd' would occur...); this is not what most users want. I think we should be content to list every module just once. This indentation feature was the outcome of this discussion: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-06/msg00132.html> Do you have a better idea for presenting the specified and the dependent modules in a lightweight way?
