the rule is simple: BUILD_DEPENDS for utils needed for _build_,
buildlink2 and/or DEPENDS for things needed for _run_.  (and also what
julio said).  it's unnecessary and unwanted to create runtime dependency
on build tools (as you did now).

look at other packages depending on bison for examples.  and of course,
you are welcome to update Packages.txt :), but this seems to be rather
obvious when you think about it.
