Hi David,

Sending this as an RFC since I dont really know what constitutes
a RRECOMMENDS vs. RDEPENDS.
Is this clearly defined somewhere ?
Below should be an RDEPENDS, no ?
Does this actually fix the problem though? An RRECOMMENDS would only not be
satisfied if the package ended up empty, or you were using BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS
(or NO_RECOMMENDATIONS). I can't see this change actually accomplishing
anything.

Thanks for the quick reply,
I was using --no-recommends, via the opkg package-manager.
(rootfs-sandbox).
Regarding the split between RRECOMMENDS and RDEPENDS:
In my understanding, RRECOMMENDS would be when the functionality is
optional,
RDEPENDS when dependency is hard.
To me, this seems like a hard dependency. But a definition between the
two would be good to have
for future patches.
Br,
David
