Can you please have a look if virtual/awk is sufficient or if gawk is needed.

revdep-rebuild.sh uses awk and gawk, but only in posix-conform ways.

Depending on sys/gawk is correct, but all appearances of "gawk" could be replaced by awk to depend on virtal/awk instead.

Forget what I said, there is a small non-posix conform part in revdep-rebuild.sh, so gawk is correct.
