Ticket: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/15161>
The full enhancement requested by the ticket will (AFAICT) be rather difficult to implement at present. I have however attached a patch which improves things a bit. It makes 3 things better:
1. You can use depends_build for software that needs to be used in the extract or patch phases. This helps e.g. python23 which needs gnutar for extract. 2. You can use depends_build for software that is needed for the configure phase but not at runtime (e.g. pkgconfig). Currently depends_build is not checked until after the configure phase. 3. Dependencies weren't being checked when running some packaging targets. Now they are.
