We only need:\r\n[ ] a new keyword in the spec (I propose `virtual`). `virtual` packages won't be allowed to have a download or an install stanza.\r\n[ ] support in the install command. This one is pretty easy: when given a `virtual` package, install just needs to inflate it to a list of mods. The virtual package itself should *not* be listed among the installed packages.\r\n\r\nAmong other things, this would allow for a very cool integration with (KerbalX.com): users could download a metapackage that installs all the mods needed to use the chosen craft.\r\n\r\nI will start working on this as soon as I get a chance (but it won't be very soon...). What do you guys think about this?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/KSP-CKAN/CKAN-core/issues/comments/72751380","html_url":"https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN-core/issues/63#issuecomment-72751380","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/KSP-CKAN/CKAN-core/issues/63","id":72751380,"user":{"login":"Ippo343","id":7579988,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/7579988?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343","html_url":"https://github.com/Ippo343","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ippo343/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-03T22:39:41Z","updated_at":"2015-02-03T22:39:41Z","body":"Please see the two referenced pull requests.
