I did so.

I took into consideration 'Depends on [m]' case too.
I inserted another patch before this.

I did not take this.
The expression for 'depends on' is not so long, so we expect a single
line for this.
Itemization is generally used when we expect multiple lines, IMHO.

I did so.

I did so.

I chose sym_warn_unmet_dep().
