When upgrading, the list is huge, but the patch doesn't include the
dependency thing then (because it's not particularly interesting in that
context). But if you're installing some-innocuous-package, and it turns
out to have a dependency tree that will install 300 more packages, you
may want to reconsider. So now it says:
Packages to install: 1 (some-innocuous-package) plus 300 dependencies. Proceed? (y or n)
