Currently, the hdf5 pkg depends (incorrectly) on math/array. This breaks both update of an existing installation (the entire update process errors, even for raco pkg update -a) and raco pkg install hdf5 with this error message:

[samth@huor:/tmp racket] raco pkg install hdf5
Resolving "hdf5" via https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/7.0/catalog/

The following uninstalled packages are listed as dependencies of hdf5:
   math/array
Would you like to install these dependencies? [Y/n/a/c/?] a
raco pkg install: no such directory

What different behavior did you have in mind here? My initial reaction is stopping the install/update is the right choice, while --force makes sense if a user wants to install/update without installing dependencies.
