Comment:

 This is a real problem. The point is that ngrep registers libpcap as build
 dependency, but it's really a runtime one. So, if ngrep is the only port
 depending from libpcap from ports, 'port uninstall leaves" removes libpcap
 and leaves ngrep in a broken state. I assume this change is needed:


 {{{
 - depends_build   port:libpcap
 + depends_lib     port:libpcap
 }}}
