optdeps not (visually) listed correctly if all deps are met.

I was using pacdep to list missing optional dependencies on my system.

[user@archmobile ~]$ pacdep -oppp  binwalk-git
binwalk-git             924.00 KiB ( 31.21 MiB)
Exclusive dependencies:  14.21 MiB
 local:    7.62 MiB
 sync:     6.59 MiB
Optional dependencies:   37.04 MiB
 local:   22.70 MiB
  bzip2                     133.00 KiB
  cabextract                 64.00 KiB
  cpio                      801.00 KiB
  gzip                      150.00 KiB
  p7zip                       6.09 MiB
  sleuthkit                  11.87 MiB
  squashfs-tools            263.00 KiB
  tar                         2.61 MiB
  xz                        757.00 KiB

  community/arj             325.00 KiB
  community/lhasa           154.00 KiB
  community/mtd-utils       991.00 KiB
  community/python-capstone 652.00 KiB
  extra/python-opengl        12.28 MiB
Shared dependencies:    450.05 MiB
Total dependencies:     501.30 MiB (502.21 MiB)

upon installing the missing optional dependecies, i get the followin output:

[user@archmobile ~]$ pacaur -S arj lhasa mtd-utils python-capstone python-opengl --asdeps

 [user@archmobile ~]$ pacdep -oppp  binwalk-git
binwalk-git             924.00 KiB ( 52.15 MiB)

 cpio            801.00 KiB
 gzip            150.00 KiB
 lhasa           154.00 KiB

Shared dependencies:    450.05 MiB
Total dependencies:     501.30 MiB (502.21 MiB)

So in the above output, one can not visually tell if optional dependencies are met, as it does not state "local".
One could interpret that NO optional dependencies are installed.

Is this a bug? or intentional?

No, this is expected behavior. By default only local packages are listed, so there's no question. But when using -ppp then it might list both local & sync packages, and then makes the separation clear. But if all are local, it doesn't bother indeed. Also note that whenver sync packages are listed, they're always prefixed by the repo in which they were found, e.g. "foobar" means local package foobar, whereas "core/foobar" means package foobar from repo core.
