It is the case Ian (lol) but if you do not provide the packages require
like the list of packages that we speak about, apt-get cannot generate
the package itself.
It is why we used that, my target was to find the easyest way to
separate OS and middleware.
Advanced Package Manager is advanced becasue it manage dependances
itself.
What i don't like is that it did not said directly i need pasckage XXXX
which is not available.
I'll look in the man if there is no a way to have a more explicit info.
