Bug#683859: [Aptitude-devel] Bug#683859: closed by Daniel Hartwig mand...@gmail.com (Re: Bug#683859: aptitude: APT::Get::Build-Dep-Automatic is not honored)
Aptitude provides for tracking sets of packages: # aptitude --add-user-tag foo-builddep build-dep foo I had no idea, thanks for making me aware of this! It seems like a much better solution. I'll definitely start using it. Very useful feature but I don't think it gets a lot of exposure. [then, after make foo] # aptitude --remove-user-tag foo-builddep '?user-tag(foo-builddep)' Did you mean to add an unmarkauto to this command? No, actually it should have 'remove' which I missed. The build deps are not marked auto by the first command. The second should have been: # aptitude --remove-user-tag foo-builddep remove '?user-tag(foo-builddep)'

Excerpts from Daniel Hartwig's message of Sun Aug 05 02:41:30 -0700 2012: [then, after make foo] # aptitude --remove-user-tag foo-builddep '?user-tag(foo-builddep)' Did you mean to add an unmarkauto to this command?

The second should have been: # aptitude --remove-user-tag foo-builddep remove '?user-tag(foo-builddep)' Oh, right. Actually, I meant markauto, which may be better, in case something else has depended upon a foo-builddep package in the meantime.
