Yes, I do believe the pkg_add -u is failing.
For starters here is my current package source info.
=============================================
farm# echo $PKG_PATH
farm# cat /etc/installurl
https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD
farm#
=============================================
However, at some point earlier I had used
#export PKG_PATH=http://ftp.vim.org/OpenBSD/6.6/packages/amd64/
[Now commented out in the .profile]
I had gotten behind in making updates, and so started using packages from
there.
My fault certainly. But hoping I could recover, and in the process
learning a bit more about how the structure can get damaged, and hence
understand better how it all works.
Will have to run the full pkg_add -u, under current conditions, later
today, as I have to run across the border shortly.
If it becomes probable that I am wasting you folks time with too unique a
circumstance feel free to say so.
Meanwhile, I really appreciate such shared insights as helps my general
orientation.
Regards,
Austin
