Yeah, that's kinda the problem. If your dependencies are complex enough you may have a tough time figuring out when you've packaged everything. Surprises may be lurking anywhere. It might be loading files based on something read from a config file, or concatenating tokens, so you'd have a hard time knowing you got everything for sure without reading the source for every library your application loads, and every library your direct dependencies load. And then everything may still work until 3 distro releases later something finally becomes binary incompatible.
