Yes, there is no other helper, except the package pre-selection
templates of the generic target.

We mostly delayed the implementation of more magic dependency
selection because embedded targets usually manage to build
even more minimal packages without normally hard enforced
deps by patching them - more automatic selection would usually
contradict this.

But we plan to implement more automatic selection in the future,
and also differentiate between build time and run-time deps
(currently the automatic dependency .cache files only contain
build-time deps).

Have fun,
