They are required to build and run portupgrade. If you do a 'make search name=portupgrade' from /usr/ports, it will list all the dependencies. > PS..

That's because portupgrade did all the work :) If you had run portmanager before running portupgrade, you would have seen something similar - portmanager taking two hours and portupgrade taking almost no time at all.
