The SVr4 packaging system understands http based URIs for the packages since 
2006.

It does support the knowledge on dependencies since a long time...
If we add the inverted tsort algorith and a default prefix for packages
(e.g. http://schily.net/packages) and if we combine this with ZFS,
is there really something missing?
