[gentoo-pms] [PATCH 1/2] dependencies: Indicate that in pkg_*rm phases dep info is advisory

[Michał Górny]

Indicate that the depenendency information for pkg_*rm phases is only
advisory.  This could happen e.g. if dependencies are unmerged manually.
Since the PM can not rely on being able to reinstall them in general,
ebuilds must be able to handle them gracefully during uninstalls.
