Portmaster --check-depends: how can I fix this?

With the old package/ports management system

Code: 
portmaster --check-depends

automagically was able to fix any wrong/missing dependencies.

Now with pkg system I got:

Code: 
>>> Missing package dependencies were detected.
>>> Found 25 issue(s) in the package database.

pkg: No packages matching 'lang/perl5.12' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'x11/qt4-opengl' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'devel/qt4-declarative' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'www/qt4-webkit' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'textproc/qt4-clucene' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'devel/qt4-qtestlib' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'misc/kde4-shared-mime-info' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'devel/kdebindings4-python-pykdeuic4' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'devel/kdebindings4-python-pykde4' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'graphics/py-clutter' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'lang/ruby18' available in the repositories

How can I automatically fix all this like with the old port/pkg management?

Use pkg-check(1) instead.

I did it:

Code: 
pkg check -d
pkg: No packages matching 'lang/perl5.12' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'x11/qt4-opengl' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'devel/qt4-declarative' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'www/qt4-webkit' available in the repositories

pkg: No packages matching 'devel/kdebindings4-python-pykde4' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'graphics/py-clutter' available in the repositories
pkg: No packages matching 'lang/ruby18' available in the repositories
Exactly like portmaster said and no fix.
 
The default version of Perl is now 5.16, so it looks like you're missing a couple of updates. Expect a lot of conflicts when new packages depend on Perl 5.16.

What repository are you using?

10.0-RELEASE.

I do NOT use packages, ONLY ports.

The only solution is to rebuild the programs reporting missing dependencies. In the past, you had the option to eventually delete a dependencies from a package if not needed. Now you have to do everything manually.
 
Well, I have a somewhat pristine FreeBSD 10-RELEASE/i386 installation (clean installation, no conversion) and I can confirm that the error messages you got aren't anything weird. @wblock@ spotted the Perl version, the same can be said about almost everything else. Ruby 1.8 is no longer in the Ports collection (see 20130527 in /usr/ports/UPDATING), those kdebindings4* packages; same, now you only have devel/kdebindings4.

So it looks like you need to do some serious updating. Reminder: pay close attention to /usr/ports/UPDATING or otherwise you will run into problems.
