Ok, I'm really trying to make sense of these numbers...

For gnome2-2.18.1_1 on my -current system...

rnoland-ibm% make package-depends|wc -l
     362
rnoland-ibm% make actual-package-depends|wc -l
     294

Registered the old way:
rnoland-ibm% grep @pkgdep /var/db/pkg/gnome2-2.18.1_1/+CONTENTS|wc -l
     176

and the new way:
rnoland-ibm% grep @pkgdep /var/db/pkg/gnome2-2.18.1_1/+CONTENTS|wc -l
     294

I put together an awk script yesterday which was very close to the one
Alexander posted and got 295... and the diff of the output of my awk and
actual-package-depends is much more than a single line, which I also
can't yet explain.
