Hm... Reading it again, along with the paragraph above it, I can now see
that it only recommends using Python-Depends under certain circumstances.
However, it definitely does not say to avoid Python-Depends under other
circumstances, nor does it explain how Python-Depends is meant to work.  It
would be easy for a reader to assume (as I did based on the older
documentation) that Python-Depends should be used in general, and must be
used under specific circumstances.  I think it could use some clarification.

It's a proprietary package, so I can't share the whole thing, but I could
share the control file and the relevant part of the rules file.  Would that
help?
