I don't think this is not the way we should handle it.

We surely all aggree to the statement that dependencies are bad in
general. To make this clear: if there weren't any dependencies at all,
we were fine off, cause ADK would run on every machine possible. This is
idealistic thinking, and I can understand if you condemn it. Myself
condemns it sometimes, too. But we are able to reduce dependencies,
although in a quite small range (in this case limited to the minimal
version of a package) we should support this. In my eyes this is a way
of stepping towards portability, which we all support as it's one of the
core concepts of FreeWRT.

Greetings, Phil
