[csw-users] Interpreting the dependency analysis after a completed packaging

Hi

When I'm packaging my package I'm getting this output after the last 
step of "gmake package" and I just want to make sure I understand the 
output.

Examining dependancies in 'depend' file (May take a while)
system      CSWcommon common - common files and dirs for CSW packages
application CSWncurses ncurses - ncurses library and utilities
application CSWossl openssl - The Open Source toolkit for SSL and TLS.
application SMCncurs ncurses
SUGGESTION: you may want to add some or all of the following as depends:
    (Feel free to ignore SUNW or SPRO packages)
 > !SUNWcslr
 > *SUNWdpl
 > *SUNWlibms
 > SUNWcsl
 > SUNWcslr
 > SUNWcsr
 > SUNWlibmsr
 > SUNWopenssl-libraries

Does this mean that my files/CSWerlang.depend file should look like this:

system      CSWcommon common
application CSWncurses ncurses
application CSWossl openssl
application SMCncurs ncurses

I would guess that I need to include depndencies on the other packages, 
but what should their prefix be? And what does the * and ? prefixes in 
the output mean?
