Am I? I thought I was asking pretty obvious question to eliminate assumptions!
And, for some strange reason, I am still not getting a straightforward answer

But OK, let's make assumptions explicit.

This is how I see it (simplified, with an explicit assumption that everyone understands that each library, application etc may have multiple versions):



My original question was, "isn't Openrepos clever enough to offer multiple versions and let your device pick the one matching your setup?"

(That is, assuming one uses a proper, rather than lazy dependency definition as per the diagram above.)
