Because you lost a couple of files in /var/db/pkg?
A poor question on my part.
How can I make this portupgrade succeed?
If the problem is only that those two files are missing from
/var/db/pkg/*/, you can likely just touch(1) them and be on your way.
If other files are missing, you're in a little more trouble, but I've
gotten out of this simply by installing the port manually with a
FORCE_PKG_REGISTER. That is, force a reinstall without using
portupgrade:
# cd /usr/ports/foo/bar
# make all install clean FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=1
# pkgdb -F
The install went well. Then the pkgdb -F was:

The last step is to clean up dependencies, and may not be required.
I did this. It's still running.
Key point: libvorbis has been upgraded
Thank you
