Hi,
it would be useful if apt-rdepends could also resolve the reverse
dependencies of a virtual package, but currently, it does not:
$ apt-rdepends -r ghc-ghci
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
ghc-ghci
$ apt-cache showpkg ghc-ghci
Package: ghc-ghci
Versions:
Reverse Depends:
yesod,ghc-ghci

ghc 7.2.1-1
ghc 7.0.4-7
Greetings,
Joachim
