This is used to avoid duplication of dependencies or building several dependencies when only one is needed. For example when we say "Recommended dependency: one of dep1 or dep2 or dep3", only one of them does not have role="nodep". That is, if we decide that alfs will only build "dep1" in the example above, we put role="nodep" for dep2 and dep3. I guess in your case, too many deps are "nodep"... I'll have a look at it.
