On several of my boxes (set up with pkgng), libcheck was recorded as a

So I returned to the older boxes and reinstalled the depending packages,
using 'pkg install -f'. Lo and behold, the dependencies disappeared.
Is this expected behaviour?
As far as I can see, libcheck is not currently a dependency of any of
the x11-toolkits/py-wx* ports. As libcheck is a unit test framework, it
would be unlikely to be anything other than a BUILD_DEPENDS anyhow --
and if you use pkgng with a repo, the only packages you'ld install and
the only dependencies pkgng would record are the RUN_DEPENDS and
LIB_DEPENDS.
So I don't know why it appeared on your older systems, but having it
disappear on the updated ones would be correct and the expected outcome.
Cheers,
Matthew
