retitle 771864 libdebian-installer - dependency resolver needs to support excluding packages tags 771864 patch thanks
I have attached a more complete patch
commit 44c141d0d050f8cc3f9311c07ddc42a0baf69092

Add preference for resolving conditional dependencies
Previously when parsing "Depends: A | B | C" only
a dependency on A would be registered. This patch
makes it possible to pass an di_slist of packages
to be skip on such a list, ie. if a was in the
exclude list, b would be considered, and so on.
If both A, B and C is on the exclude list, C
would be used anyway.
This doesn't implement complete exclude support,
but support excluding packages in that are pulled
in via conditional dependencies.
I have knownily broken the ABI for di_packages_special_read_file(),
since accordingly to codesearch.d.n it is only
used internally.
