These are computed every time you try to install or upgrade something in your local copy of MacPorts. They are based off the current portfiles.

Port files are updated through either the selfupdate or the sync commands. I advise just simply running `sudo port selfupdate && port outdated` regularly.

When dependencies change, how does port dependents get updated? Or does it?

Ok, so I'm assuming that you mean that it will be updated when PortIndex is updated. That is, this command uses
the dependency information in PortIndex not from the Portfiles themselves?

Looks like gcalctool didn't make the last PortIndex rebuild, so will see in half an hour or so.
