<br>
Reading <br>
<a href="https://docs.qgis.org/3.22/en/docs/pyqgis_developer_cookbook/plugins/plugins.html#plugin-metadata" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://docs.qgis.org/3.22/en/docs/pyqgis_developer_cookbook/plugins/plugins.html#plugin-metadata</a><br>
<br>
about 'plugin_dependencies' and trying it out in a plugin locally, it <br>
does not seem to be enforced or so? I added another plugin in metadata <br>
(it's not clear from docs what name you need to use: plugin name or <br>
module name) thinking I would see some message somewhere.<br>
<br>
Is there some message on <a href="http://plugins.qgis.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">plugins.qgis.org</a>?<br>
<br>
Or is it just a 'memo' for users who happen to see it in the metadata of <br>
a plugin, then a dev should notify the user theirselves?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any info,<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Richard Duivenvoorde<br>
