My recommendation is to put EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS=true
in to your /etc/make.conf on freshly installed system - before any port
is built / installed.
This will change the amount of recorded dependencies to store just a
direct one.
This way you can easily list direct dependencies which need to be rebuild:
# pkg_info -R pcre-8.31_1
Information for pcre-8.31_1:
Required by:
apachetop-0.12.6_3
ccze-0.2.1_3
apache22-2.2.22_8
php53-5.3.17
nmap-6.01
postfix-2.9.4,1
Without EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS you will get bunch of ports independent
on PCRE - for example all installed PHP extensions.
I think that this behaviour should be the default, because current
dependency list is almost useless.
And if you are using portmaster, you can try 'portmaster -w'.
if the -w option is being used, all shared
libraries installed by the old port (if any) will be saved to
/usr/local/lib/compat/pkg
