Pretty much; there are cases where a package might import something
conditionally in order to improve integration, but if it isn't
available, the package as a whole can function just fine on its own.
In those cases, no dependency should be recorded.

Ideally, dependencies of the implementation and the tests should be
separated, but we've been treating them as one so far.  Moving to eggs
should allow improvements along these lines.
