This is not good, it will take a lot of time.
In getting updates we have to depsolve each to see it it can be updated 
and report 'blocked' if not.
In GetUpdateDetail we have to do the same and submit the 'depsolver 
error messages'.
Why not add a new signal 'dep-problem <package id> <cause> and emit it 
just after 'package broken <package id>'
Then we just have to depsolve once.
It would also be nice to have a depcheck flag on get-updates to 
enable/disable
'get-updates' will do  like it does today and 'get-updates depcheck' 
will run depcheck on each package.
