Sometimes instructions to build some port from source are needed. "cd /usr/ports/{caregory}/{port-name} && make" rebuilds everything from source, including dependencies.

Is there an easy way to make it install missing dependencies with pkg, without listing them? I couldn't find such feature.


This can be useful:

1. When some software's README describes how to install it on FreeBSD from source.

2. When developers need to compile from source only a specific port without waiting for dependencies to build.
