refers to some illusory port named "gtk-doc @1.32₁+python39". I have installed gtk-doc @1.32_1+pdf+python38 – why is port not using the actually installed port for reference? This behaviour would make more sense for me, when I try to find out why python39 gets installed when I am upgrading a port, emacs-app-devel for example. A help would be to use for example -i or -d to direct port rdeps into the proper direction – either information about the -installed or the -default version.

Bear in mind that any deps based on path: or bin: may cause the results to not completely reflect reality, in terms of what is ultimately installed. That doesn't mean the list is incorrect, but rather, it's based on the default given by such deps.
So my guess is that such deps may be coming into play here.

Therefore my wish to make it differentiate between ideal defaults and dirty reality.

Replying to ballapete:
Therefore my wish to make it differentiate between ideal defaults and dirty reality.
I like the idea, at least in principle. But I'm not sure how feasible/realistic that is, given the dynamic nature of everything.
But I'll let @jmroot and @ryandesign speak to it.

| Type: | request → enhancement |
Let's be honest in the summary; the reported deps are not inaccurate, they're just not for the version of the port that you happen to want at this moment.

And it would make only sense, when
port rdepswould use the whole dependency line down either this or that version.
