Is pkgng dependency solver immature? (Was: Re: Dependency on gettext)

[Victor Sudakov]

Dear Colleagues, 

How do I get rid of these phantom dependencies? Why is 
"pkg upgrade" trying to install all these packages without actually
upgrading anything? Is there a way to debug the dependency solver?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Pls see the output below:
