Shawn - after having all that discussion I was thinking, are you proposing actually something like:

cat pseudo_code_pkgnodeps.sh
pkgrecive $1 | grep -v "^depend " | pkgsend -n $package--nodeps
pkg install $package--nodeps

More like:

pkgrecv -s <src_repo> -d <dest_repo> --no-deps $1
pkg install pkg://my_publisher/$1

This is not that bad then, especially if -d could be ommited and default local depo would be used.

sure .. i'd assume that if you're doing this, than you have a private local repo anyhow .. so why not:
pkg republish -s <src_repo> --no-deps $1
pkg install $1

of course it might be bit handy to still have the dependencies available in the consolidations (eg: entire) but not necessarily in the individual packages .. i mean - if we're not compiling as part of the install, who cares what order the packages get installed as long as they all get there and don't clobber each other?
