If you set DEPENDS_TARGET=package-install in /etc/mk.conf then packages
will get created automatically for all the dependencies of whichever
package you chose to build.

I build with pkgsrc on one server then NFS mount that from any of my
slower systems.

I also set these variables:

PACKAGES= /somewhere/on/nfs/server

WRKOBJDIR= /somewhere/on/local/machine

Then clean out WRKOBJDIR if it gets full.
