The ports system has been broken with the last upgrade, and many of us which have found the same problem could not find a solution. It has been suggested by some that you could copy pkg_info from some newer version. Other person suggested re-building pkg_install (in fact, it was incorrectly suggested to build pkg_info), after cvsuping src. I tried both, with no luck. I will go the hard way, re-installing the system, with a new version. As a side note, I mentioned that I have been using FreeBSD for a decade (of course a rough estimate), and have been corrected by very knowledgeble (sp?) people in opposite directions. One said that FreeBSD was not yet ten years old, other said it was ten years three months. But still no help with a solution.
