Hello,
As a result of bug #180045 PDEPENDs can be now merged even before the package
that pulls them. Zmedico says that's intended behaviour and PDEPEND is really
a RDEPEND, but with a ability to resolve circular deps:
circular DEPEND <-> RDEPEND can't be resolved while circular DEPEND <->
PDEPEND can.
Random behaviour occurs when there is a circular RDEPEND <-> PDEPEND, e.g. bug
#186517.
We need to update docs or harass zmedico to force PDEPEND to be pulled as soon
as possible but not before the pkg that pulls it.
