I'm specifically thinking of the directories that has to be emptied or
deleted.
Thanks

Using portmaster to do a complete reinstallation of all your ports:
1. portmaster --list-origins > ~/installed-port-list
2. Update your ports tree
3. portmaster -ty --clean-distfiles
4. portmaster --check-port-dbdir
5. portmaster -Faf
6. pkg_delete -a
7. rm -rf /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg
8. Back up any files in /usr/local you wish to save,
such as configuration files in /usr/local/etc
9. Manually check /usr/local and /var/db/pkg
to make sure that they are really empty
10. Re-install portmaster
11. portmaster `cat ~/installed-port-list`
