14 A required package is just a dependency. If package A depends on package
15 B then package B is required is you have A installed.

22 This is part of the python cleanup/upgrade already discussed at length on
23 this list over the past week, so the answers are already available. You

26 it installed from an overlay for a particular need of yours, you should
27 let it be depcleaned.
