I add tech-pkg@ to this thread because I think it is a technical 
problem.

I am starting to understand better. security/heimdal is a dependency of 
www/curl with the option gssapi. Nevertheless, it is not added as a 
dependency since there is a builtin implementation:
# pwd
/usr/pkgsrc/www/curl
# make show-depends
libidn2>=2.0.0:../../devel/libidn2
nghttp2>=1.40.0nb2:../../www/nghttp2

This is the default configuration I use in a chrooted sandbox to run 
pbulk. But in the /etc/mk.conf of my NetBSD, I have PREFER_PKGSRC=yes 
that produces now:
$ bmake show-depends
heimdal>=1.5.3nb22:../../security/heimdal
libidn2>=2.0.0:../../devel/libidn2
gettext-lib>=0.18:../../devel/gettext-lib
nghttp2>=1.40.0nb2:../../www/nghttp2
zlib>=1.2.3:../../devel/zlib
openssl>=1.1.1dnb2:../../security/openssl

security/heimdal should not be in BUILDLINK_TREE of devel/cmake if it is 
not a dependency of www/curl.
