[-- Attachment #1 --] This may or may not be useful for the FreeBSD community but.... As I 'ls /var/db/pkg', I noticed a lot of ports I didn't use and that didn't have a +REQUIRED_BY file. Ports such as ezm3 and gcc-ooo that I could do without. So, what I did is a simple hack in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk so that I can run 'make deinstall-builddepends' after a port is installed, and it will ask me to remove any build dependencies. So far it works great, but I couldn't use the 'force (-f)' parameter in the deinstall target so I made a new target called interactivedeinstall. (I found out the hard way when I 'deinstall-builddepends' in cvsup and it removed my xorg-libraries...). One could improve my patch by detecting if the port is already +REQUIRED_BY another port so it would not ask to delete it.
