Hmm, that was a bit unclear.

What used to happen:
cast --deps openssh
=> cast casts all spells it would for a "cast openssh", except for openssh
itself.
- So if openssl was not installed, openssl gets cast.
If this list ends up being no spell, it exits.
- So if openssl is installed (and all the other dependencies of openssh), cast
exits without casting any spell.

What happens now:
cast --deps openssh
=> equivalent to a plain "cast openssh", also casting/resurrecting openssh,
regardless of whether or not all of its dependencies are installed or not.

However, there is one case where cast still has the old behavior:
This seems to be only when the spell passed on the command line has no or only
disabled optional dependencies. In that case, cast exits as it did before.

However, if the spell passed on the command line has any dependencies,
installed
or not, the call degrades to a plain cast.
