pkg-2.5.1 `pkg info` always shows shared library requirements and
provisions in addition to pkg dependencies. The man page only gives
options to show that information separately (-b and -B). There isn't
any documented option to get the normal output that only lists pkgnames.
The problem is, listing shlibs can cause an extreme increase in output.
For example:
# pkg info -r abseil
abseil-20250127.1_1:
protobuf-c-1.5.1_3
protobuf-29.5,1
protobuf-29.5,1 (libabsl_bad_optional_access.so.2501.0.0)
[...]
# pkg info -r abseil | wc -l
165
How do I make pkg info not show shlibs?
