Hi Denny,
Thanks so much for the reply!

I don't get anything related to 'partial' when i do ls -l /var/db/pkg/

But I have two;
autoconf-2.13p1
autoconf-2.61p3
and php5-core-5.2.12.

I want to delete the php5 and all its related dependencies/files,
and re-install it again with only a single FLAVOR.

Would pkg_delete -iv -F ambiguous,baddepend,dependencies,uninstalled
php5* > /tmp/pkglist

help?
