You could write a meta package à la "julia stuff for emacs-julia-snail"
and mention that in the description, no?  I think bundling (or
propagating) these dependencies from the package is likely not going to
do us favours in weird edge cases where you actually want more julia
packages, e.g. in the julia package that you may or may not be hacking
on, which has other dependencies :)

Cheers
