The rundeps are short because they are bundled of course ;) I don't know if it's better to use this src+deps bundle tar.gz, or if it might be better to use the smaller git archive and normal MODCARGO infrastructure, CC'ing semarie, what do you think? > Bupstash uses bats as TDEP, which we do not have in ports.

Should it go in DESCR somewhere? (It is quite conspicuous on upstream's website now, but if they later remove the warning in a future version, it might not be easy for somebody using 0.7.0 on 6.9-release in some months/years time to find).
