I think I see what's going on here. The "package-recursive" makes *.tgz packages IN the dependency directories. But then, it seems that you need go back and copy those over to <wherever> and ensure that those packages are installed first before the primary port... I was under the impression that "package-recursive" would create a larger *.tgz file that included some of the dependencies. How then does that installation (pkg_add or pkg_add -p /another/path) work with this scenario - is there a recommended approach.
