Hi,

        I'm going through upgrading 1/2 a zillion ports on
a machine, and while I was doing it all of a sudden I got
notification the server was not responding. It seems
/usr/local/bin/perl no longer existed. I went and checked
my /usr/local/bin and only found :

asgard# ls
autoconf-2.53   autom4te-2.53   autoscan-2.53   ifnames-2.53
autoheader-2.53 autoreconf-2.53 autoupdate-2.53


        The other thing I noticed is that there were 3
other directories that seemed ONLY to have autoconf stuff:

        info, man, share

        It seems it took my soft links that I used for all
those directories, deleted them, created new directories,
and installed the software.
        Can anyone verify this? If so, WHY? Why would it
care? I'll spend the time re-copying all the files over
where they belong and continue on my upgrade...
                Thanks, Tuc

How do I tell the system to consider that I don't
have 2.53 anymore, just delete /var/db/pkg/autoconf-2.53_4 ?
(I also have autoconf-2.59_3, how to do the same for that?)

                        Thanks, Tuc
pkg_delete(1) would be a far more elegant solution to that question.
