Abstract

An installer for installing a software program on a computing device can be executed. The installer can perform a set of dependency checks before installing the software program. The set of dependency checks can include the validation of a pre-requisites associated with the proper execution of the software program. The pre-requisites can be a portion of a dependency content. The content can be a checklist. Before the software program is installed on the device and responsive to executing the installer, the installer can update dependency content using a custom dependency checklist. The updating of the dependency content can be performed without updating code of the software program to be installed on the device. The execution of the installer can continue using the updated dependency content for performing the set of dependency checks responsive to automatically updating the dependency content.
