>Description:
command: pkg_add -r p5-XML-Simple
installed XML-Simple just fine, however, does not install it's dependency, which is XML-Parser (XML-Parser depends on expat).

Using the port: /usr/ports/textproc/p5-XML-Simple
The dependencies install and it works.

pkg_info -r p5-XML-Simple-1.06  lists no dependencies

>How-To-Repeat:
pkg_add -r p5-XML-Simple

(Then try to use something that uses XML::Simple)
>Fix:
properly enter the dependencies for pkg's (I have a feeling other pkg's have mis-filed or non-existant dependencies).
