Some more information is needed to check this.

version of FreeBSD? Are you using latest binary packages? Quarterly? Own
repo?

Anyway I also see that plugin not being installed in a test VM, using
the latest and quarterly repository on 11.2 amd64, command 'pkg install
xfce4-goodies'

A quick look at the downloaded package content and the repo manifest
show the dependency as being registered there, so I'm not sure what's
happening.

passing -ddd to pkg for debug output shows it's discarding a bunch of
packages with lines like:

DBG(2)[758]> cannot find variable dependency xfce4-mixer

this sends me to this line in pkg sources:

https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/blob/16207928cbdbd8e950071e6067f8bc5a0a621856/libpkg/pkg_solve.c#L381

I have no idea why this is happening. I'm CCing the pkg mailing list,
just in case someone has some insight.

Uhm, this could be related in some way.

This list also includes other packages skipped by the previous command
not related to this one, so it looks like pkg, in this further run, is
recovering from skipping parts in the previous run
