Sort the output of --list-dependencies.

[OscarL]

Had this small patch lying around for too long.

Makes reading/comparing the output --list-dependencies easier.

LGTM, list is sorted which makes it indeed easier to read. I'm just confused (but I think I already mentioned that a while back at IRC) about the actual list produced. :)

It lists all the packages that would need to be created if you don't use --get-depedencies...

In that case, you either need to have the needed packages already present on HaikuPorter's $PACKAGE_DIR... or they need to be built from sources before being able to build the package you used when calling hp --list-dependencies <package_name>.

At least that's my understanding.

Like: I'm seeing uchardet_x86 when I run this on hp tiff_x86 --list-dependencies, I don't get why or how uchardet would be a dependency for tiff, for other packages maybe, but still ... ends up in a pit hole.

AFAICS... --list-depedencies lists all the direct and indirect build-requirements, so you get this long beast.

uchardet is required by groff, and the latter is required by cmd:man (among others). git requires cmd:man, and so on.

Maybe it should be named --list-build-dependencies (and the message dependencies of $packageName-$packageVersion changed to add "build" in front). The same goes for --get-dependencies then.

I get that, but fwiw, I never found it something useful to check out, underlying dependencies should be shown there, my 2 cents.

Anyway, for it's purpose this looks fine to me. 👍
