debian_package_manager: how are transitive dependencies managed?

[qzmfranklin]

Working with this commit.

When I write debian_packages.yaml, I have to manually look up transitive dependencies from debian packages.

I guess that's maintainable-ish for a small number of packages. But that quickly goes out of control.

Are there any plans to make transitive dependency management happen with debian_package_manager anytime? If not, maybe I'd be motivated to work out a version.

There is no intention to include transitive dependencies automatically. We try to be as minimal as possible.
