package.prefer remains unimplemented, but I'd like to implement it |
| 13 |
or something similar. |

I guess "recommended deps" can be represented by the existing USE |

I'm working on a new resolver design right now and I hope to have |
| 26 |
something usable within 1 or 2 months (sooner if we're lucky). The |
| 27 |

| 28 |
dependencies of bugs 144480 [2] and 155723 [3]. |
