![]() This is distinct from "many dependencies" if the dependencies must be resolved manually (e.g., on attempting to install app, the user is prompted to install liba first. ![]() Long chains of dependencies If app depends on liba, which depends on libb. This is a particular problem if an application uses a small part of a big library (which can be solved by code refactoring), or a simple application relies on many libraries. This is partly inevitable an application built on a given computing platform (such as Java) requires that platform to be installed, but further applications do not require it. It can also be difficult to locate all the dependencies, which can be fixed by having a repository (see below). Many dependencies An application depends on many libraries, requiring lengthy downloads, large amounts of disk space, and being very portable (all libraries are already ported enabling the application itself to be ported easily).
