Abstract

A system, product and process for building a package dependencies data structure. The method comprises determining a package instance identifier of the package to be processed. The package instance identifier is determined based on a unique identifier of the package to be processed and based on a unique identifier of a dependency sub-tree of the package to be processed in the package instance identifier. The package instance identifier is utilized to determine if a node representing the package to be processed exists or not. In case the node does not exist already in the data structure, the node is created and added.
