I haven't had time to make the change yet, but it now seems to me that
"sibling" is the wrong word, since siblinghood is inherently mutual
(also transitive) and I don't have that in mind here. I'm now thinking
of "host" (or perhaps "server"). If package A specifies B as
"host"
(let's say) that gives A access to B's private functions, but not vice
versa.
What about "parent" or the reverse of heir (donor? bequeather?)?
I haven't even thought about multiple layers of hosting, but as
things
stand the answer to the question above is No.
Yes, no need, methinks.
