I did not mean that "setup" should do it but rather that we have a separate command which installs all needed depenedencies, like 'eups distrib install --deps-only --table ups/qserv.table' > If you want to make the dependency installation easier, without > requiring the building of qserv itself, you could create a "qserv-deps" > pseudopackage with all the dependencies in it. That does not qualify as easier for me :) It's already easy enough to run 'eups distrib install' for individual packages if setup complains. Maintaining separate package for the same reason feels too complicated, especially if one wants to start playing with different versions of different packages.
