} aha. I think I failed to follow best practice. I did this in a bunch of
} wip/ additions.
Don't worry about it too much. Although, it is best if the patch
is complete, it is up to the committer to sanity check things. Having
done a reasonable ammount of pkgsrc work, things like this won't escape
me.

} previously the pkg had no depends so I was also un-clueful here.
pkglint didn't complain, so I wouldn't worry about this too much.

} the version in pkgsrc is 0.7807, which is where I sourced the
} dependency info from. my bad.

} is it actually better to mark it against the head pkgsrc state for the
} level of change? If PKGREVISION is rolling, why would you mark it to a
} version which is only found in older pkgsrc?
Thinking about it, it could cause force somebody to update a
dependent package when they wouldn't otherwise have to do so.
