-
-Packages, as well as groups, are interrelated through implicit as well as explicit parametrised,
-typed relationships and form namespaces correspondingly.
-
-These primarily, by expressing modalities of constraining, derivation, and/or subdividision, govern
-the build and mirroring, etc. processes with regard to ordering constraints (e.g. ``depends``)
-and derivation or sharing of sets of variables and/or patches and/or ``vars/`` files (e.g.
-``group``, ``flavour``, ``inherit``) or build and/or source directories (e.g. ``module``,) etc.
-They may, however, also be subject to enquiry for descriptive, diagnostic, or visualising purposes,
-particularly as concerns the namespaces they form.
-
-A list of relationship types follows:
-
-| Type | Mode | Description |
-| -------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| depends | implicit | Direct and recursively evaluated package dependency |
-| suggests | explicit | Suggested or recommended optional package |
-| group | implicit | Simple and overridable group variable inheritance (e.g. ``host_toolchain``, ``native_packages``) |
-| inherit | both | Simple and overridable package variable inheritance |
-| flavour | explicit | Exclusive package flavours set membership (e.g. ``vim_gtk``, ``vim_x11``) (conflicts w/ ``module``) |
-| module | explicit | Package modularisation with implicit source and build directory sharing (e.g. ``gcc_stage1``, ``gcc_full``) (conflicts w/ ``flavour``) |
-| target | both | Simple super- or subset derivation (e.g. ``host``, ``minipix``) |
