Hi all,

I am working o a project that sets up packages on the cloud.
I need to find a package manager that can be customized, like feature to
install dependancy on a remote machine(cloud instance).

like if i want to install Package1 which needs pkg1-dep1, pkg1-dep2,
pkg1-dep2-dep1, pkg1-dep2-dep3, so on.

i want to know if installing a package on a system, with some hack would
remotely install a dependancy pkg(and its deps) is possible?

example would be, if i want to install sugar CRM, i need seperate machines
to maintain seperate tasks,
like mysql in one machine, apache server in 1 machine, etc.

Is it possible in rpm package manager to handle such customizations &
dependancy requirement?

If not please suggest any other way.
