Yes, I know, it's correct what you say, but this doesn't prevent to
improve things. I'm not saying that tomorrow we'll have a perfect ports
tree where all and only direct dependencies will be listed, but if we
don't even start...
Currently we have exactly the opposite case: ports that have direct
(maybe not needed) dependencies to libraries that are not recorded in
Makefiles. This is the root cause of "portmaster -r" or aggressive bumps.
