Handling of dependencies

[Archange]

Hi there,

I’m doing a minimal installation of TeX Live 2024 (started with just 
infrastructure, a.k.a. option f), adding packages one by one when they 
are imported in my projects.

I’ve just installed hyperref, which also installed a bunch of dependencies:

[1/21, ??:??/??:??] install: atbegshi [5k]
[2/21, 00:00/00:00] install: atveryend [4k]
[3/21, 00:01/00:26] install: auxhook [2k]
[4/21, 00:01/00:21] install: bigintcalc [7k]
[5/21, 00:01/00:13] install: bitset [6k]
[6/21, 00:02/00:20] install: etexcmds [3k]
[7/21, 00:03/00:27] install: gettitlestring [3k]
[8/21, 00:04/00:32] install: hycolor [4k]
[9/21, 00:04/00:28] install: hyperref [87k]
[10/21, 00:04/00:07] install: intcalc [6k]
[11/21, 00:05/00:08] install: kvdefinekeys [3k]
[12/21, 00:05/00:08] install: kvsetkeys [4k]
[13/21, 00:05/00:08] install: letltxmacro [3k]
[14/21, 00:06/00:10] install: ltxcmds [5k]
[15/21, 00:06/00:09] install: pdfescape [5k]
[16/21, 00:06/00:09] install: refcount [3k]
[17/21, 00:07/00:10] install: rerunfilecheck [4k]
[18/21, 00:07/00:10] install: stringenc [23k]
[19/21, 00:07/00:09] install: uniquecounter [3k]
[20/21, 00:08/00:10] install: url [6k]
[21/21, 00:08/00:10] install: zapfding [46k]

Yet, the compilation of any file that imports hyperref fails with four 
missing dependencies (at least, I’ve stopped at the first error where 
the compilation process does not want to go further):

Are these missing dependencies of hyperref or of its dependencies? More 
generally, where should I report issues with missing dependencies when 
one install a given packages?

Regards.
