One of them that I already hunted down is bison-2.4.3,1 that gets
dragged in via gobject-introspection-0.9.12_1 when installing
xorg-7,5.1 (even as a package). This is caused by bison specified as a
dependency of type "both" in the port Makefile of
gobject-introspection where it should be specified as "build". I don't
think that Bison is used on run-time here and most likely not even on
build- time.
appears one of our 'short cuts' causes this. and I found it on a port I
took over maint of.
happens all the time if you do a 'RUN_DEPENDS += BUILD_DEPENDS'
pulls in all kind of cruft.
example: tshark_lite.. pulls in pkg_conf.. makes it messy if you make a
port binary package, and try to install it with pkg_add {port}.tbz.
lots of ports used that short cut above. and it should not (and I think
port lint complains)
Q: wireshark/tshark_lite maintainer: do you really need perl for
runtime? or just to build tshark_lite?
I installed it with pkg_add -f tshark_lite and never needed it (and
system didn't have perl)
