Please post responses here instead of emailing me directly.
Only "fixes" that have been suggested are:
* use packages only
* delete all packages and /usr/local, then reinstall all packages.
For ppl that want to build/install ports from the ports tree, what are our
options for fixing pkg db problems so we can keep ports upgraded?
Note: "pkg check" is missing on wiki page.
