The reason most likely being inconsistent dependency declarations in the 
ports tree and/or recipe updates.

I find commits like this completely unacceptable. If you don't understand why 
something happens, please try to determine the cause and fix it or ask for 
help, but never just go on and hope that someone else is going to fix it 
later. That kind of attitude is causing most of the PM-havoc that we're 
currently seeing.

Pulkomandy: please at the very least specify which packages are actual 
requirements of haikuwebkit and which packages have been built for other 
reasons. Otherwise, there's no way to get a consistent set of packages into 
the testing branches.

cheers,
        Oliver
