>Description:

	
	pkg_add emits incomprehensible output when a dependency fails.

	# pkg_add tracker-4.29.tgz
	and was not foundgmake-3.73.

	# pkg_add -v tracker-4.29.tgz
	Projected package size: 213692 bytes, free temp space: 91299840 bytes
	and was not foundgmake-3.73.
	1 package addition(s) failed.
	Package `tracker-4.29' depends on `gmake-3.73' which is not currently loaded# 

	(note lack of CR on final line of output)


>How-To-Repeat:

	
	On a system that does not have the gmake-3.73 package installed,
	attempt to install /packages/audio/tracker-4.29.tgz from the
	ftp.freebsd.org archives as of noon on 5/14/95
