clyde installs dependencies for AUR packages before edits made to PKGBUILD

This is perhaps related to #10, though in some ways it is different. The problem I'm having is that it is installing too many dependencies, not too few...

If you try to install or update an AUR package which has dependencies in the normal repos, Clyde will just go ahead and install the dependencies for the AUR package before you are given the chance of editing the PKGBUILD. But what you had planned to remove or change some of those dependencies? Nope, too late.

And here's the real kicker: it does this even if the --nodeps or -d flag is used to skip dependency checks! That option seems to be completely meaningless for AUR packages.
