Whenever I run pkg_info, I am receiving error messages that indicate conflicts with my packages. For example, when I run pkg_info, I get:
pkg_info: read_plist: bad command '@conflicts libX11-*' grep'ing for libX11-* in /var/db/pkg shows the offending package to be XFree86. Or, more specifically: XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_7 I was getting another conflict with fontconfig, but reinstalling it with "portinstall -rP" helped. I tried reinstalling XFree86-libraries. But, this time it didn't help. Running pkgdb -F exits normally without error. But, it doesn't help resolve the conflicts. Would including "-R" as an option to portinstall help? I have seen similar problems on Google. Yet, I don't see any solutions. There are only 2 things that I can think of that would be worth mentioning that could possibly be related to the problem. First is that since I am running 4.6-RELEASE, my system may be too old to work properly with current ports. The second is that I recently moved my installation to another HD. That's been a couple of months ago and I haven't noticed any other problems with that transition. One last bit of information that might be helpful to mention is that I use portupgrade. As a possible fix, I have considered upgrading to 4.10-RELEASE. But, I'm fearful that I will end up trashing my box completely. Any suggestions?
