The method I chose for fixing chkdeps.sh for Ubuntu and whatnot involved executing apt to verify a package was available or not. The issue with this is it has made chkdeps.sh really slow - could do with speeding this up by only doing this check against upstream for dependencies where they can be satisfied by an alternative.
The actual real issue with this I believe is that the check to see if we've already satisfied the dependency comes AFTER the alternatives check. The end result is going to apt for gdk-pixbuf2.0 over and over.
