I think it is worth pointing out that berks-api (and now supermarket like it) 
are _not_ depsolvers. The only API used by berkshelf is /universe which just 
returns a list of all cookbooks that exist, their versions, and their 
dependencies. All depsolving still happens in berks and/or chef-server just 
like before berks3.
