--- Comment #12 from Matthias Pfaller <matthias.pfaller@familie-pfaller.de> ---
synth will not operate on an "empty" system. Before building all direct 
dependencies will get installed (from the active repository). So the build will
run with apr-1 installed as configured on the compiling system. Due to this it
*will* find the gdbm dependency and it will be recorded in the resulting
pkg-file. I do not know why rebuild-repository is rejecting the newly built
pkg.

looking at the resulting pkg file it and its dependencies look ok to me.

In my opinion this is a synth problem. I can attach a "good" pkg (accepted by
synth) and a "bad" pkg (not accepted by synth).

BTW, the perl5 dependency is there in both cases...
