How do you then note in Arusha that any dependencies have been installed? Is
it possible to get this information back from pkgsrc into Arusha? Is it
desirable even? I would have guessed so for completeness, but perhaps not.

I'd help, but the thing is that I'm actually quite fond of the Arusha
package manager ;-)  I've grown quite used to being able to have multiple
versions of the same package installed and the ability to deploy packages
without revealing them.
