I disagree - all such dependencies should be listed regardless of whether they are accounted for by alphabetical order.

It's starting to sound like you want to duplicate the info in the
individual package pages. I don't agree with that. Oddities like
circular deps and binary path hardcoding are things that the individual
package pages don't support and would be very welcome here. The other
info is just duplicate. If I'm missing the point, feel free to enlighten
me. :)

Not really. The package installation page just lists what is needed to build that package. The "buildorder" page lists exactly what needs to be built *in a particular order*. The point is to specify that util-linux in Chapter 6 must be built after e2fsprogs in Chapter 6 - in other words, if we were to install e2fsprogs in Chapter 5 for some reason, that would not be enough to satisfy the util-linux dependency.
