Hi,

if this has been answered before, my apologies.  If not, it would
seem a good candidate for the faq.

I'm wondering if dependencies for a particular port can be satisfied
via installed packages.  For example, I'd like to compile amavisd-new-2.3.2,
which lists the following dependencies:
        R-deps: :archivers/arc :archivers/bzip2 :archivers/freeze :archivers/lha
        :archivers/lzop :archivers/p5-Archive-Tar :archivers/p5-Compress-Zlib
        :archivers/unarj :archivers/unrar :archivers/unzip :archivers/zoo
        :converters/p5-Convert-TNEF :devel/p5-Net-Server :mail/p5-MIME-tools
        :mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin :sysutils/p5-Unix-Syslog
        p5-Archive-Zip->=1.14:archivers/p5-Archive-Zip
        p5-Convert-UUlib->=1.05:converters/p5-Convert-UUlib

I see that there are packages for "lha", "lzop", "unzip", "zoo",
and "p5-Archive-Tar", to name a few.

If I install the packages, will they be recognized and used?

thanks,
