Sure. The reason I was asking was that it seemed redundant to me to have |
| 12 |
an "N" in every line. |
| 13 |
But I think this comes from my perspective as a user, if I understand |
| 14 |
correctly "-ep" is rather meant for someone maintaining the tree, to |
| 15 |
check for blocking dependencies. |
| 16 |
In this context I seem to be abusing this option for comparing package |
| 17 |
versions along the dependencies in my local installation. |
