Re: dependency explosions
Thanks Miroslav, Cyrus is marked as automatic and I don't understand why that is. But I've removed it as I only needed its libraries for Dovecot and, as you pointed out, that isn't necessary any more. All working!

So Cyrus is not > a build dependency of anything - why is it offering to remove it? Dovecot has it's own SASL implementation. It doesn't need the equivalent Cyrus version. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Sasl 'pkg autoremove' is offering to remove cyrus-sasl because cyrus-sasl was presumably originally installed as a runtime dependency of some port (and hence marked as 'automatic'), but that port no longer depends on cyrus-sasl, so pkg sees cyrus-sasl as a candidate for removal.
