Depends on package is a way to hook other packages into the dependency list that are not normally in the freebsd package manifest as being a dependency. An example of this is if you where needing both squid and mysql. Since squid and mysql don't depend on each other this allows an easy way of mixing and matching packages to automatically be included.
