If your port runs any programs or uses modules or libraries during the
building phase, then those should be listed as BUILD_DEPENDS. Any
programs, modules or libraries that are required after the program has
been installed (think: installing from a package) should be listed in
RUN_DEPENDS.
It is not at all unusual for the RUN_DEPENDS and BUILD_DEPENDS lists to
contain many items in common. In fact, this is a fairly common idiom:
BUILD_DEPENDS = foo:${PORTSDIR}/bar/foo
RUN_DEPENDS:= ${BUILD_DEPENDS}
Note the use of ':=' -- that prevents RUN_DEPENDS being polluted by
spurious other build-time only dependencies introduced by some USE_BAR
knobs.
Cheers,
Matthew
