Hi, in bsd.port.mk there is a variable ACTUAL-PACKAGE-DEPENDS. To my understanding it is broken with pkgng. The target where this is used is still used if FORCE_PACKAGE is set.
Can someone confirm (I've only read the code)? Previously this target was used to only record the explicit dependencies of a port and not all the recursive dependencies. To my understanding (again, I've only read the code) the EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS feature is broken now at least on systems which don't use pkgng (it seems that one of the changes to support pkgng in bsd.port.mk introduced this regression). I don't know how pkgng handles this part of the package creation. If it has no internal knowledge similar to EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS, this feature is broken with pkgng too. Can someone confirm? If my analysis is correct, does someone know if this is on the TODO list of pkgng? This is specially interesting as the release process of FreeBSD 10 is starting and it seems that the ld of FreeBSD 10 doesn't record recursive lib-dependencies anymore and as such it may be interesting to switch to EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS for 10-onwards.
