Okay, I changed the docs accordingly.

However, are you sure it is a good idea to provide a minimal
set of packages, rather than an explicit list that can be
mechanically checked against the list (table) of requirements?

Also, will the dependencies always stay the same? Will flex
always be considered as "base" package by FreeBSD?

For instance, I could shorten the package list for Debian, too,
but I'm somewhat unsure whether this would be really a good idea.
