Because I know EXACTLY that Joerg WILL NOT apply it. I decide to make
a discussion a bit more open.

BTW, 50% of the PRs sent months ago are still open, most of them
contains a patch. Not all of them are ideal but many are good enough
to be applied. But now most of them are close to be forgottren. So?

There is no need for any switch/option.  pbulk already have several
"exit statuses" for failures like
"failed(pre,clean,configure,build,install,checksum etc.)", magic
"prefailed", "indirect-failed" etc. (last two are not so informative as
they should be :-( ). Add a new one: "bad dependancy" and read pbulk logs.
That's all.

This is completely different problem and should have completely
different solution.
