If that were the case, then why were those ports listed as dependencies not actually installed on my system? I know that a port lists the dependencies of all of the ports on which it depends, and that is normal. In this case, there are dependencies that do not exist on my system, and never have. Besides none of the other ports on my system list them as dependencies, only samba3 does.
