Probably that is the easiest solution.

I'm just a bit lost in what is the preferred way of expressing package
dependencies and loading process. I see Monticello's package
dependencies but I also see specifically created load scripts and
things like Flair and Gofer.

I'm rediscovering development in Pharo-Squeak (I have been mostly
working in Visualworks the last 5 years). So perhaps I'm asking a
silly question that does not make sense? ;-)

Heh, it makes sense to me, since I come from VisualAge, where dependencies can be nested as deep as you like. I'm quite new to PharO though, so that's why I asked the question. Hopefully someone knows the answer.
