As far as possible, avoid working on -current stuff using a system whose

I probably missed something, but I guess these errors don't
really result from not updating:

I ran into the same thing. Once the system rebuilt I had to perform the dreadful pkg_delete -q /var/db/pkg/* since the ports built on 4.0 would not work on 4.1-beta.


This happens with every other port (e.g. transcode, bochs,
hpijs) I tried. Very simple ones with no real options like pftop
aren't affected. I had a fairly recent system (ports and src) running on that machine while this happened.

Yesterday I updated everything (ports, src) to current, hoping
that it was just a short-term inconsistency somewhere in the
tree. But building the system anew didn't change the situation at
all.

I'd be grateful for any hints; I suspect that I'm overlooking
something here.

Thanks in advance,
/Markus
