Details
This command prints the exact reasons why a package appears in the dependency tree.
If -R,--recursive is set, the listing will go in depth and will list, for each
workspaces, what are all the paths that lead to the dependency. Note that the
display is somewhat optimized in that it will not print the package listing
twice for a single package, so if you see a leaf named "Foo" when looking for
"Bar", it means that "Foo" already got printed higher in the tree.
