Package: apt
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

Sometimes, I need to cut and paste the contents of a Depends field (from running "dpkg -s", etc.) or from a Build-depend line (from the control file of a .deb whose source I just unpacked) to install packages required by a package that I downloaded separately. It'd be really nice if "apt-get install" understood the syntax of those fields directly instead of having to edit the command line to remove all the commas, the minimum version requirements, the ORs (with "|") before pressing enter.

Thanks,

 Christian
