Ah! I wasn't happy with 'core' either, but failed to come up with anything better. "Prerequisite" is definitely better.
I would use "dependent" and "dependency."
But the meaning of 'dependent' is the opposite from 'prerequisite', isn't it ? If A depends on B, B is a prerequisite library. 'prerequisite' is an adjective, while 'dependency' isn't.
