Missing 'depends' section in ext_emconf.php leads to error
0%
Description
If an extension has no 'depends' section in ext_emconf.php, but requires packages via composer.json, then during install:generatepackagestates an error is raised:
The package "myext" depends on "my/composer-package" which is not present in the system.
When putting 'constraints' => ['depends' => []], into ext_emconf.php it works fine.
Especially for project specific local extensions you may not have any dependencies specified. When it works with the empty depends array, it should also be possible to leave it out entirely.

Hey Sebastian,
which extension has which dependency file? I guess you have two extensions depending on each other? Can you share example ext_emconf.php and composer.jsons?
Does this also happen in v11?
All the best,
Benni.
