Yuk. Fixed. Thanks.

Does the rock-dfki package auto-import rock-core ? If not, the order
is not guaranteed.

Finally, this test is not needed anymore, as the packages will be
auto-excluded if you set the weak_dependencies flag to true (should be
the default for generic package sets like rock-dfki).

It is even harmful because: if someone is trying to get it, in one
case the package would just have disappeared, in the other the user
will get a proper error message that the dependency is not available.
Same problem that
https://github.com/rock-core/rock-package_set/pull/16 is trying to fix
in the rock package set.
