- Add support for 'depends2: package (relation version) [...]', in a

Those lines don't seem to get generated for all packages yet.  I
currently merge with requires: to produce a working setup.ini re-write
and will switch to using requires: when I find no depends2:.  Can I
assume that all versions have a depends2: line when I find one for
[curr]?

…and of course these are a result of the latest officially available
calm version not having those changes, so my local packages are still
using requires: lines.  Any chance you could relese a new calm version?

Sure. I uploaded calm-20180130-1.

I really need to automate that as part of the deploy :)

Other than that I think I've fixed up my setup rewriter so it can deal
with the new format correctly now and I've even managed to implement
explicit version pinning (which I had on TODO for almost three years,
but since before I've only had test, curr and prev for testing I've put
it up each time I looked at it).

Another thing I noticed today is that when packages get upgraded the
transaction list that gets printed to the console seems to always show
the removal of the old package _after_ the installation of the new
version.  I guess that will not happen in this order, but it looks
positively weird on screen.

Yeah, I think we are reversing the order given by the solver. This should be benign, as we do all the uninstalls before installs.

I'll fix that :)
