IMHO the output should be

Missing RECOMMENDED packages:
* E
* F
* G

Missing REQUIRED packages:
* A
* B
* C

so that the real errors and are immediately above the command prompt; if
you have a largish list of missing (recommended) packages, you would
otherwise have to scroll back to see the real errors.
