[fpc-pascal] How do fpmake dependencies work??

[Darius Blaszyk]

Hi all,
I'm trying to use fpmake for my own project which is built up of a
couple of packages. The final application has a dependency on these
packages. 

Which I have done like this: 

P := AddPackage('my_app'); 

P.Directory := 'app'; 

T := P.Targets.AddProgram('hello.pp'); 

T.Dependencies.Add('my_pkg'); 

However, adding the dendencies does not add the units output dir to the
target. I think it would be a good idea to do this by default. Do you
agree? 

Please find the output of my test case (which is also attached) below. 

Regards, Darius
