That is how the ports tree works for eons, and that can't be fixed until we=
 can
totally get rid if pkg_install (to many corner egdes) pkg_install to work
properly needs to track fully direct and indirect dependencies, pkg does no=
t,
but because the ports tree still need to be compatible with pkg_install and
lots of people are still using all habits from the pkg_install time, it is =
very
hard to remove this right now.)

But yes for sure this "feature" will get removed :))
