Yes, we should make a difference between PKG_BUILD_DEPENDS and
PKG_DEPENDS, because sometimes you only need a dependency for
compiling a package. The info.nfo system will introduce these new
variables, but getting the ADK to use this information to build
the packages in the right order, is a open task.
So if you like Christian, wait for the info.nfo system and
afterwards try to add your implementation.

The ipkg control files will be autogenerated.
thanks so far
