[Bug 1337538] Re: arm64/xgene-uboot lacks u-boot-tools

[Scott Moser]

i dont see any sort of explanation as to why a dependency is not appropriate. I see
a.) stgraber agreeing that there should be a dependency
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flash-kernel/+bug/1160360/comments/5
b.) loic suggesting that some other piece of software should be used to decide which packages to install
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flash-kernel/+bug/1160488/comments/1

why is it not possible to do the right thing?

Why couldn't whatever logic is used to decide "should I install flash-
kernel" instead be used at runtime?
