[erlang-bugs] reltool dependencies ignored

[Siri Hansen]

Hi Michael!

I haven't spent a lot of time on this yet, but I was just trying to find
the chain of dependencies that lead to syntax_tools, but I find it a bit
hard I would appreciate some help...

I found one way but it didn't really make sense:

reltool.config includes application 'cloudi_service_db_cassandra', and in
cloudi_service_db_cassandra.app.src.in you have
{applications,[...,cloudi_x_erlang_cassandra,...]}

Under the directory external/cloudi_x_erlang_cassandra/src/ I then
find erlang_cassandra.app.src, which indeed has
{applications,[...,syntax_tools,...]} - but this is obviously an
application named 'erlang_cassandra' and not 'cloudi_x_erlang_cassandra' as
listed above... so how does this work?

Regards
