#136 closed defect (fixed)

apt doesn't install dependencies first

Reported by: maphew Owned by: maphew

Description

apt install shell will correctly grab the pre-req msvcrt, but it installs shell first, consequently the required xxmklink.exe is not available to create the menu and desktop links.

Curiously the install order is independent of order on command line, apt install msvcrt shell will still attempt shell first.

Work-around: apt install shell && apt remove shell && apt install shell
