<p>Yes it could do that too but that would involve a more
sophisticated UI - the list of packages that are actually getting
installed has to be presented to the user, total size,
localization and so on. I agree that it would be nice (can't think
of any reason not to do it), it's just not high on the priority
list I guess.<br>

Ok, so you are also saying that the "tap-on-RPM-to-install"
mechanism in Sailfish OS could do it too but it's Jolla's
choice not to?</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;

Is that for security reasons? Since the user has accepted the
risks by ticking "untrusted sources", could the behaviour be
changed?<br>

<div class="PlainText">Basically, I was trying to say that if
Jolla Store client can do it and
<br>
command line pkcon can do it (i.e. automatically install
dependencies) <br>
then Warehouse can do it too. If Warehouse doesn't do it,
it's the <br>
choice made by the creator of the app. I pulled the sources
and haven't <br>
found anything there about the dependencies.<br>
<br>
One thing that I learned today: The PackageKit currently
used by <br>
Sailfish OS (version 0.8.something + a few patches) has
D-Bus method <br>
called GetDepends. However the smart upstream guys have
renamed it into <br>
DependsOn:<br>

<br>
(backward compatibility? what's that? never heard of it!)
meaning that <br>
Warehouse should try both methods to make sure that it works
with future <br>
versions of PackageKit. Right now it doesn't seem to do
anything.<br>
<br>
