installed versions is a true reflection of currency, not requirements constraints? #38

Hi there, nice idea!

My requirements file may be allow updating to the latest version of dependencies (and so may show as up to date with libyear) but if I cache my dependencies and last updated them two years ago then the actual libraries making up my application could be hundreds of "libyears" behind current.

Is that by design, if so what is the rationale?
