 And the tool "bsmtp2dma" is a simple replacement for Bacula's "bsmtp"
 when the system mailer does not listen on TCP ports.
+
+This package normally does not depend on tools that are not in a FreeBSD
+base installation. But in some cases there are issues with them:
+
+- space characters in the names of jails
+- space characters in the names of mounted devices (e.g. ZFS datasets)
+- space characters in mountpoints
+
+In such cases the text output from "jls" or "mount -p" is inherently
+ambiguous. If /usr/local/bin/jq is available at runtime then these
+issues are not existent because JSON output is requested and processed
+properly.
+
+To be sure to not run into such issues consider installing the package
+flavor `local-bsdtools-alldeps'. Of course it is possible to install
+"textproc/jq" manually.
