In a first aspect of the invention, there is a computer-implemented method including: generating, by one or more processors, dependency version information for a target software application, based on activity of a compiler registered with an event handler; generating, by the one or more processors, one or more dependency sections with a dependency list for the target software application, wherein the dependency list incorporates the dependency version information; and building, by the one or more processors, a software package with the one or more dependency sections with the dependency list for the target software application.
