Cleaning up port dependencies

Dear all,
Running 'portupgrade -a' religiously to automatically update all
installed installed ports, I have started to notice duplicates in
certain installed applications. Most likely due to dependencies.
%pkg_info
...
ruby-1.6.8.2004.07.28 An object-oriented interpreted scripting language
ruby-1.8.2.p2_1 An object-oriented interpreted scripting language
tk-8.3.5_5 Graphical toolkit for TCL
tk-8.4.7,2 Graphical toolkit for TCL
libtool-1.3.5_2 Generic shared library support script (version 1.3)
libtool-1.5.10 Generic shared library support script (version 1.5)
Is there a way to check on whether dependencies on the earlier version
still exist. Or perhaps I have deleted a port that does not need that
port version any more. Just some housekeeping here.
Thanks in advance,
