    3030==== Task 1: Dependencies ====
    3131
    32 Implement support for richer dependencies, including dependencies on versions and, potentially, variants.
     32This task consists in implementing a new dependencies engine for MacPorts. The current dependency engine properly deals with installing packages, but it does not deal satisfactorily with dependencies on variants (and versions), uninstalling and upgrading. This very challenging task requires a complete formalization of the use cases before any implementation, as well as a deep understanding of the dependency relations (static linking, dynamic linking, runtime use).
