Was there a HOLD un the PTF with an explanation that it had to be on a separate APPLY from the prereq?

This is exactly what I did when I encountered this. First apply ptf A, then ptf B that needs whatever new path or something. The problem for me has always been to identify ptf A because ptf B's holddata don't show up on the apply check. And sometimes I just had to walk through each of the ++pre's of B to find it. Cumbersome is too easy a word for this process.
