Many of the blastwave programs simply don't work if you attempt to use the
libraries on the system instead.

That's an additional aspect.
Maybe you do not remember that I have been a Blastwave
member/contributor/packager myself from 2004 to 2006, so I am aware of
the nitty gritty.

The rest is still 100% true.
Did you read link #1 which I provided earlier in this thread?
If not, then here it is again:

My point was that a dependency algorithm was not the cause of the issue with the blastwave packages. It is primarily an issue of how they are built.
