This patch add a new recusive importer (recusive-import-semver) which uses semantic versioning to find the correct version of dependencies. This procedure is then used by the crate importer. Since quite a few langague pms use semantic versioning I hope that other importers can also use it.

This patch has one problem that I'm aware of. recusive-import-semver relies on guile-semver. But how do I make it so that it is installed by default? Or altenativly how can I check a guile module exists or not, so that I can promt the user to install it?

Thanks,
Martin Becze
