Yup, exactly. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you find it useful.

I approached him initially with the source code and the idea, but he wasn't interested. So
that is why I have taken the idea to the community. So far I have had a great response from
people building their own packages. I hope the more the community adopts this, the faster
Patrick will come around.

Yea, or simply having a slack-conflicts file along side the slack-required. That needs to
happen next.
Thanks and take care,
jason
