pkg_add doesn't keep dependent pkgs

The problem is that i always try FreeBSD snapshots, and each time i
did a fresh install, i found my self in need to install xorg & gnome.
so when i use pkg_add -rK xorg or pkg_add -rK gnome, it just keeps the
package itself only without its dependencies, it would be better for
me to keep the packages i use rather than downloading them every time.

The ports has no problem with that, since it leaves all the port
dependencies in /usr/ports/distfiles but i prefer packages than
recompiling every time i install a fresh system something like gnome
would eat my day compiling it.
