I'm still not convinced by this one. Shouldn't we instead have a more
generic mechanism such as --exclude=<foo>,<bar>, which would allow to
exclude packages? And maybe one of the possible values would be a
magical value to exclude virtual packages?
There are some cases where ignoring host-pkgconf, or
host-automake/host-autoconf/host-libtool may be interesting, for
example.
Best regards,
Thomas
