If you list dependencies in the .dep file with a
trailing space (and no version numbers) you get an
error from packagectl install:

usage: check-installed PACKAGE VERSION

Returns successfully if the PACKAGE is installed at the
requested or higher VERSION.
usage: install-package [--list-updated] PACKAGE VERSION

Install a package.

VERSION may be a version-specification.
/Users/heather/cvs/rt3/ext/bin/build/check-dependencies:
error running install-package perl-File-Temp

In the above case, the rt-mysql...dep file contained:

perl-File-Temp

with a trailing space.
