Hi Andreas and the team, To ease our life in maintaining tasks files across blends, having multiple copies of descriptions, especially for not-yet-uploaded packages 'blends-inject' came into existence [1]. Sample obscure package's debian/blends [2] and somewhat lighter one: [3] could serve as examples. I thought finally to take care about "blends standards" (e.g. as described in doc/en/A_devel.sgml), so for packages which still have no tentative packages I used Ignore: source name, since it seems to be the one to use according to the description of Ignore. Docs suggested that such package would be placed "on the radar" (not even under), thus I implied that at least it would get listed on the web task pages. But apparently, as Michael H. has pointed out, they are indeed "Ignored", i.e. not listed. So, the question -- should I go for the "standard" or just for "common practice" (i.e. use just Depends/Recommends/Suggests for existing and non-existing packages). I do not mind always using Depends (like I was before), but I thought it might be beneficial to take advantage of the full range of specs ;) (so may be some tools could complaint whenever package in Depends is not available, and it would mean typo in the package's name, etc).
