Well, talking about this specific pkgng update problem leads to other problems of installing software. I can not say whether it is a portmaster-specific problem or the way PKGNG keeps data, but like OpenCV, there are other ports failing to compile or install or update properly due to "leftovers" made by portmaster in /var/db/pkg. Deleting them makes things go well again - partially. In one case of my servers I can assure that there were no use of any old-style package tools! By beginning of November this year I set up a new server with FreeBSD 10-CURRENT using purely PKGNG. Since portmaster tends to be problematic those days due to lack of adaption, I used portupgrade for a while, but moved for maintainance to portmaster after the patch to portmaster for PKGN has been commited. Since then, portmaster installs its files in /var/db/pkg - no "leftover" files. And on that machine those problems also occur with failing updates. Regards, Oliver
