Summary: All dependencies are ignored if one does not exist
Product: Sorcery
Version: 1.x Series
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Cast
AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: charkins AT pobox.com


This isn't really a huge show stopper as it requires a listed dependency to
not
be a valid spell. However, I still consider it a bug in how sorcery is
handling
dependencies. This could prove to be a problem with cross-grimoire
dependencies
if one of the grimoires is not installed. I'll attempt to describe the problem
with a simple case:

* foo, bar and null are spells
* foo and bar are valid spells
* spell null does not exist in a grimoire
* none of the three spells are currently installed

foo/DEPENDS:
depends bar &&
depends null

Casting foo will not cause bar to be cast.

foo/DEPENDS
depends null &&
depends bar

Order does not make a different, in this case casting foo will also not cause
bar to be cast.

Expected behavior (few possibilites):

1) missing/invalid spell null is ignored but bar *is* cast
2) the entire cast fails with a "missing dependency" error message
