Details

Add a --syncdeps option for -U/-A operations: This would install the file with -U/-A, but install all dependencies as if you would -S them (except the "Reason" field, which would be "installed as a depdendency" in this case).

Reason for closing:  Implemented
Additional comments about closing:  commit 0da96abc90 (syncdeps would be the default behavior, so no option for now)

This will be very useful option, especially for packagers, because now I have to rebuild local repo with gensync after each makepkg run when getting PKGBUILD to build, then install package and deps with -S and then remove package from cache. Err.

It's worth noting that you can -S --asdeps, so this isn't impossible currently. I think it worth implementing, though.

This is implemented in Nagy universal branch : http://repo.or.cz/w/pacman-ng.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/universal
