Finding dependencies - known in Ubuntu, which one is it in FreeBSD

M

I have a list of Ubuntu packages which are required to build an application.

Code: 
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libgl1-mesa-dev \...
 libxrender-dev libxext-dev portaudio19-dev \...
libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libavdevice-dev

How do I find out which ports are the applicable FreeBSD ones? Some of the, like audio/portaudio2 and /x11/libXrender are quite sensible, others not so much. Is there a list anywhere? Where is the suggested place to start looking?

I tried searching freshports.org and the Ubuntu repositories, but did not come up with anything useful.
 
You could also goto the port's directory and issue the following commands:

To see ports required for building
Code: 
make pretty-print-build-depends-list

To see ports required to run
Code: 
make pretty-print-run-depends-list

That only works if there is a port already. I'm trying to port a Linux application, so I need to do the writing of the package list.

Maybe, but I don't know it. Try a case-insensitive locate(1) on a FreeBSD system with a full ports tree:
Code: 
% locate -i libx11 | grep /usr/ports
/usr/ports/audio/x11amp/files/patch-libx11amp::Makefile.in
/usr/ports/audio/x11amp/files/patch-libx11amp::configure
/usr/ports/distfiles/rpm/i386/fedora/10/libX11-1.1.5-4.fc10.i386.rpm
/usr/ports/distfiles/xorg/lib/libX11-1.4.4.tar.bz2
/usr/ports/x11/libX11
/usr/ports/x11/libX11/Makefile
/usr/ports/x11/libX11/distinfo
/usr/ports/x11/libX11/manpages
/usr/ports/x11/libX11/pkg-descr
/usr/ports/x11/libX11/pkg-plist

So that one is x11/libX11. Some of the others might be possible to find indirectly. "libavcodec" finds patch files in other ports. Look at the pkg-plist in those to find that it's part of multimedia/ffmpeg.
