List Dependencies of Pending `pkg upgrade`
I wanted to update most of the stuff on my FreeBSD system, so I was going to perform a pkg upgrade. I noticed that one of the listed new packages to be installed was Wayland; I'm not interested in having Wayland on my system, and I'm curious as to what's trying to install it. I assume it's a new dependency introduced by one of my many (many) packages being upgraded.
Is there any built in, approved, or otherwise straightforward way of determining which of my updated packages would cause Wayland to be installed on my system without actually updating those packages?
