Hi

I was thinking about the 'configurations' idea and how you just set up
dependencies.  Then I realised that prehaps it would be good to be able to
list source-dependencies dependencies for the source package to compile
and dependencies which Are source - so as to allow 'configurations' which
include source.  Prehaps the second one could be implemented in the normal
dependencies just as packagename-src ... but would need some code support.

anyway ... just a whishlist item...

Gareth
