To query such dependencies, use pkg(1):

bloody(~)[0]% pkg contents -rm postfix | grep entire
depend fmri=pkg:/entire at 11-0.151014 type=incorporate
bloody(~)[0]% 

That one will present problems.  An updated package won't, e.g.:

bloody(~)[0]% pkg contents -rm python-34 | grep entire
depend fmri=pkg:/entire at 11-0.151014 type=optional
bloody(~)[0]%
