If you are using pkgsrc from source, you have targets to show build
and run dependencies, read the pkgsrc guide.

If you are using binary packages, you can use pkg_info with a URL
or pkgin. Read the man pages.

Is there some problem with pkg_info, pkgin or make targets in linux?

Has been a while since I used pkgsrc on linux, sorry if I missed
something.
