port dependents

[Jeremy Lavergne]

PortIndex -- from my experience -- merely gives MacPorts the names and  
locations of ports available, as well as very basic information for  
search (such as description).

I'm fairly certain the dependencies are calculated from the portfiles  
themselves.  Anyone else?
