Subject: bug#23346: 25.1.50; package.el silently installs package dependencies
Date: Sat, 23 Apr 2016 12:17:01 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87inz8z4ea.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
For instance, if I request to install trie, I will be asked in the minibuffer if I want to install it. That's fine, but then all of its dependencies are installed without asking. Would it be possible to do a dependency check before prompting the user?
