Assuming the reoirt if generated output is verbatim, I beleive
this is behaving as you desire. Usually the "Excluding up-to-date
packages" line includes what I believe is one dot per package so
excluded.
I would argue a better notification would be something like:
'R' and 'f' options specifed - skipping up-to-date dependency checks.
