How about the following :

I see the problem has been addressed, so JFYI: a reverse selection
doesn't resolve "depends on".  It's a known shortcoming.  That is, a
selected item can select further others, but cannot depend on others.

The item will still be selected regardless of its dependencies, but Kconfig 
will print a warning if one or more of the dependencies are not met along 
with the dependency chain that causes the warning. So you'll have a clue why 
things go wrong.
