Hmmm, it certainly does what it should do but I might like to stress
that this is actually no *fix*. The original column "dependency" just
stores what is given inside the tasks file. The calculated value we
need for the control file is just something else. So overriding the
original value of depends is not a good idea if we want to use the
output for verifying the correctness of our query because it hides the
dependency given inside the tasks file.

Yes, IMHO you can start with this.

Kind regards
