I'm struggling to figure this out.

I tried pkgutils/pkgdep but this seems to only work one package at a
time... I have quite a few packages installed...

Can you offer a suggestion how I find out where this dependency is coming
from?
And if there is no dependency how I reset pkg_chk?

Should I use a utility other than pkg_chk to update and if so, which one?
