Description Robert Yang 2016-01-21 09:13:37 UTC
The build would be failed when the recipes lacks dependency, but nothing happend when there is a redundant dependency, we need find a way to clean this up.
Comment 1 Paul Eggleton 2016-01-21 19:17:04 UTC
Is there a practical way we can determine when a dependency is redundant?
Comment 2 Randy MacLeod 2019-06-13 15:27:25 UTC
This may be impossible. Reopen if you are psychic.
