[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57522] "pkg unload" does not care for dependencies

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #17, bug #57522 (project octave):

Did you try computing the reverse-dependencies on the fly for packages as
needed, when "pkg unload" is called, before your implementation that
calculates them all and stores them in the cache? If there's not that much of
a performance hit, I would think it would be better to not add redundant
information to the cache file, and just derive the reverse-deps when needed.

If you do need this stored in the cache, have you looked at whether "pkg
rebuild" is also affected?

Please use 'cellfun (..., "UniformOutput", false)' instead of your shortcut
syntax.
