| Hello,

| I will appreciate your advice about how to best handle stale
dependencies. Today I wanted to upgrade phpMyAdmin and I got a number of
questions about stale dependencies. I eventually deleted all of them,
but does this mean I need to upgrade ports which used this dependency
(mailgraph-1.14_1, netpbm-10.26.52, p5-FuzzyOcr-devel-3.4.2_1,
php5-gd-5.2.5_1, and rrdtool-1.2.26)?
I am not sure what your asking... if your asking do you need png for
phpMyAdmin the short answer is no... the long answer is yes because if
you want to maintain the ports it depends on then they need png.
Portupgrade uses an external DB (not the same one as pkg_* uses) and
this is the one that pkgdb maintains. Which means that until you run
pkgdb portupgrade will use the "old" depends... now if you not using
portupgrade this is not an issue but since you are you need to make sure
the two are in sync.
That being said once you answered yes/all to "Delete this?" then any
mention of the depend in pkgdb will be removed and if you had already
done a make deinstall or pkg_delete then your fine all the way around
(and by definition you already have because you will not get that
question unless the port/package doesn't exist in the /var/db/pkg hierachy)
