It doesn't. The problem comes in with the dependency resolver. The |
| 18 |
only solution to this is checks using built_with_use in pkg_setup, which |
| 19 |
is discouraged except where absolutely necessary, as it causes all of |
| 20 |
the dependencies to be merged (incorrectly, possibly) before there is a |
| 21 |
failure. |
