this something for us?

The dependencies should be the same.  The problem often is that we
moved a bunch of packages from SFE to JDS and they got renamed from
SFE* to SUNW*.  The SFE spec files may not have been updated or
the SUNW package is not installed on your system.  Actually, quote
a few of them will land in snv_99 so on earlier builds you will
need to build them yourself.  Most of them are in the spec-files-other
repo of the JDS project.

BTW, I recommend trying the (experimental) IPS-enabled pkgbuild:
http://pkgbuild.wiki.sourceforge.net/pkgbuild+and+IPS
You can simply uninstall SFpkgbuild and build 1.3.91 yourself.
Then start your depotd and use pkgtool with the --ips option.
The packages will be published in your local repo.
