Yeah.  I thought that there were a couple of apps that would either
install a dummy version of a package or just tell the database that the
dependencies were installed.  I have looked all over for an alternative
to tellico, but can't find a suitable one.  I want to track audio CDs,
and the other collection managers seem focused on films.
