Sometimes instructions to build some port from source are needed. "cd
/usr/ports/{caregory}/{port-name} && make" rebuilds everything from
source, including dependencies.
Is there an easy way to make it install missing dependencies with pkg,
without listing them? I couldn't find such feature.
This can be useful:
1. When some software's README describes how to install it on FreeBSD
from source.
2. When developers need to compile from source only a specific port
without waiting for dependencies to build.
