What's going on here ? Aren't these all dependencies that should have
been tracked ? (shouldn't they be in the Trunk or Branch sections ?)
A port can have six different dependency types (extract, patch, fetch,
build, run, lib). Of these, lib is a subset of run and only run
dependencies are listed in the package information.
Most of the root and leaf ports you list fairly clearly fall into one
of the non-run dependencies: eg nasm is only needed to compile some
assembler in one of the other ports, bison is only needed to compile
some grammar files. The ones I don't recognize as falling into this
category are libassuan, gnupg-devel, libdts and teTeX-base. Someone
else may be able to expain these.
libassuan -B-> gnupg-devel -B-> gpgme -R-> kdepim3 -R-> kde3
teTeX-base -B-> kdegraphics3 -R-> kde3
Where:
-B-> = left-hand side "is a build dependency of" right-hand side
-R-> = left-hand side "is a run dependency of" right-hand side
