make package weirdness in pkgsrc-2010Q1

[Martti Kuparinen <martti.kuparinen%iki.fi@localhost>]

Hi,

Last night my pkgsrc tree was automatically updated [1] to the pkgsrc-2010Q1 
branch so I started to rebuild all my packages. My mk.conf is in [2] but there's 
nothing special in it.

# rm -rf /var/tmp/packages/*
# cd /usr/pkgsrc/shells/bash
# make package clean clean-depends
===> Building binary package for bash-4.1
=> Creating binary package /var/tmp/packages/All/bash-4.1.tgz
===> Cleaning for bash-4.1
===> Cleaning for digest-20080510
===> Cleaning for m4-1.4.14
===> Cleaning for bison-2.4.1nb1

Looks good. But why didn't I get binary packages for m4?

# ls -lh /var/tmp/packages/All/
total 1.6M
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1.2M Apr  9 12:28 bash-4.1.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  363K Apr  9 12:27 bison-2.4.1nb1.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   40K Apr  9 12:26 digest-20080510.tgz

Next I downgraded pkgsrc/mk to pkgsrc-2009Q4, removed all installed packages, 
ran "make package" again and now I have a binary package for m4.

# ls -lh /var/tmp/packages/All/
total 1.8M
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1.2M Apr  9 12:42 bash-4.1.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  363K Apr  9 12:41 bison-2.4.1nb1.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   40K Apr  9 12:40 digest-20080510.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  218K Apr  9 12:40 m4-1.4.14.tgz

Am I doing something wrong or do we have regression in the new branch?

I noticed all this while trying to create package for spamassassin and I was 
unable to install the binary package due to missing dependency (p5-something) 
even though the required perl package was built and installed in my chroot. Once 
I manually ran "make package" for all these trouble makers I had everything I 
needed.
