There seems to be a bug in recent versions of pkg_delete. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't, I get:
.//: Permission denied pkg_delete: post-deinstall script returned error status I have to retry multiple times before it miraculously succeeds - and of course, it *always* works when I try to ktrace it. Here's an example: root@des /home/des# pkg_delete lcms-1.09 libmng-1.0.4 qt-3.0.5_5 .//: Permission denied pkg_delete: post-deinstall script returned error status pkg_delete: package 'lcms-1.09' is required by these other packages and may not be deinstalled: libmng-1.0.4 pkg_delete: no such package 'qt-3.0.5_5' installed [oh, that's right, qt has already been removed.
