No nodeps doesn't ignore the fact a package is masked allowing a merge |
9 |
of a package that is masked. Many masked packages will install and |
10 |
correctly especially when you are talking about whats masked out for |
11 |
alpha. a force option would allow users to easily test the masked out |
12 |
packages for themselves (without changing there package.mask file) and |
13 |
they in return could give you reports. |
