Logcheck dependency hell

Hello,

could anyone help me what command should I use to find out which
logcheck-required port _exactly_ is trying to install half of the X
libraries?

The logcheck port lists the following build depends (output of
pretty-print-build-depends-list):

This port requires package(s) "compositeproto-0.4 damageproto-1.1.0_2
dmxproto-2.2.2 docbook-1.4 docbook-4.1_3 docbook-4.2 docbook-4.3

xineramaproto-1.1.2 xmlcatmgr-2.2 xmlcharent-0.3_2 xorg-libraries-7.4
xproto-7.0.14 xtrans-1.2.3" to build.

However, I really doubt that something as simple as logcheck really
needs all of these dependencies and I can't trace it far enough to see
which dependency is pulling all these X libs. How can I trace this
dependency hell? Is logcheck really this "heavy" or is the port that
bad?

Thanks for any input,
