 dependancies missing for packages that I installed from packages.  I
 assumed that it would catch this and not prompt me to fix stale
 dependacies like that.

I've never had it warn me about build dependencies.  I don't think the
ports database even tracks them.  Are you sure those aren't runtime
dependencies?

 Along those same lines:  I deleted a build dependancy before I decided
 to skip them, is there any way to fix that automatically?

Sorry; I don't understand the question.
