Except for keg-only reps of course. I suspect quite a few bug reports we receive are due to this sort of thing. Ideally we'd not do this check for deps, since they have already been checked. I fear some weird consequences. But this check *should* be done before unlinking the previously installed brew in the case of upgrades. And the ignore_deps flag is set after the initialiser. There are ways round this but the code would be less nice.
