Lo and behold, the dependencies disappeared. >=20 > Is this expected behaviour? As far as I can see, libcheck is not currently a dependency of any of the x11-toolkits/py-wx* ports. As libcheck is a unit test framework, it would be unlikely to be anything other than a BUILD_DEPENDS anyhow -- and if you use pkgng with a repo, the only packages you'ld install and the only dependencies pkgng would record are the RUN_DEPENDS and LIB_DEPENDS. So I don't know why it appeared on your older systems, but having it disappear on the updated ones would be correct and the expected outcome. Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
