Take a port with a LIB_DEPENDS dependency (eg:- xaos, which depends on `png').

  $ lcvs co xaos
  $ cd xaos; make ... [snip] ...

  # make install
  ... [snip] ...
  ===>  Registering installation for xaos-3.0
  Warning: "/usr/ports/graphics/png" non-existent -- @pkgdep registration incomplete

I do have the `png' package installed:

  # pkg_info -aI | grep png
  png-1.0.1           Library for manipulating PNG images.

And sure enough, the files in /var/db/pkg/png/ don't get updated correctly
to record the dependency of `xaos' on the PNG library.

Note: bsd.port.mk on -stable post 2.2.6

Am I missing something?
