This may be, but the port has "libjpeg" as dependency listed.
ports/www/p5-RT-Authen-ExternalAuth$ make all-depends-list | grep jpeg
/usr/ports/graphics/jpeg
ports/www/p5-RT-Extension-SLA$ make all-depends-list | grep jpeg
/usr/ports/graphics/jpeg
Sorry I had no way to detect if this dependecy is not needed.
I build the index with "EXPLICIT_PACKAGE_DEPENDS=yes",
which reduced the number of ports affected alot.
Sadly further work on this general problem has been suspended.
I hoped the current package tools where up to the task,
making this bump obsolete, but I have been prooven wrong.
kind regards Dirk
