I wondering if there's a way to show all the dependencies and sub- dependencies of package foo?
apt-cache will show the dependencies for a particular package, but it doesn't show the dependencies of those dependencies.
If I get your meaning, apt-rdepends is the package you want:
"Description: Recursively lists package dependencies This utility can recursively list package dependencies, either forwards or in reverse. It also lists forward build-dependencies. The output format closely resembles that of `apt-cache depends`. As well, it can generate .dot graphs, much like apt-cache in dotty mode"
