Not that I know much about the needs here, but I would expect also - Supports pinning to a specific version ? With that I mean the ability to lock a dependency to a specific version, à la pinning in pip/PyPI in the Python world. A system that only has the latest versions of everything available (e.g. like Homebrew on the Mac side, unless you consider "taps") would not be very good I imagine, since I think you'll want to lock in known good versions?
