Star PiSi: One Step Further with Pardus

Linux "With thousands of packages to maintain, most important part of any distribution is indeed its package management system. PiSi is the package manager of Pardus, written from scratch in Python. By writing another package manager, our purpose was not to reinvent the wheel but to create a new kind of wheel that takes distinctive ideas from existing ones with also easy integration and maintanence in mind."

This sounds good. Is there a way to tell Pardus "Hey, I want to grab a package with all its dependencies"?

on command line why don't you try "pisi it <package-name>"
OTOH user-space GUI installation tool automatically handles dependencies

edit: added OTOH sentence.

you can use "pisi info package_name" on command prompt. it will show the dependencies.
