Description
Hi,
I just had again the problem that depends_build doesn't work. The portfile has this depends_build settings:
depends_build port:p5-xml-parser
So this should be executed if I run port -d configure. But it isn't and I don't know why. Do you have any ideas?
Thanks for your help, Simon

No because the configure command failed with an error "XML::Parser is missing". I check it with port installed and it was not installed. After I installed p5-xml-parser manually through port install ... configure worked fine.

depends_build are used after configure, while depends_lib are used before configure.
So it works as currently documented in portfile(7), even if that it is somewhat opaque...

Are you sure you don't already have p5-xml-parser installed?
