As I've posted before, the problem is not always as simple as it's made out to be. When I upgraded to 4.8-STABLE, I still got that error. It was because of a corrupt directory in /var/pkg/db, which was causing pkg_info -O to abort before finishing. Running the failing "pkg_info -O whatever" command by hand made the problem visible, and I deleted the bad directory. -- Matthew Hunt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * Clearly there are more things in the http://www.pobox.com/~mph/ * heavens than anyone anticipated. -enp _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
