why the repository's URL is optional?? he objective of dawi isnt add
the repository URL to source.list file?

why we take the dependecy?? if we install the package with apt!

with a parse of dpkg -I package_name
with bash-script:
dpkg -I packagename | grep Depends | cut -d : -f 2
or
dpkg -I packagename | grep Depends | cut -d : -f 2 | cut -d \  -f 1
for the first depend package
