When pkg retrned the er= ror for chromium, I built www/chromium from ports successfully (in about 12= hours). I thought this was a one-off problem for chromium, but I now get t= he error for en_GB-libreoffice too. So obviously there is problem with pkg = on this box. I already tried 'pkg update', which returns normally. > > Can anyone give me a clue as to how to fix pkg on this box ? Is this using the default pkg configuration? Try 'pkg update -f' to make sure that your local copy of the package catalogue is in synch with what is on the repos. Cheers, Matthew Hi Matthew, 'pkg update -f' did the trick for me. Thanks a lot !
