Well, I think I happen to do...





After doing what entry 20140219 in UPDATING suggested, I came up with:

I was used to this kind of mess and let "pkgdb -F" fix it (at least it 
would ask what to do about wrong dependencies), but that's not an option 
anymore.

So, from what little information I could find, I did:

> # pkg set -o textproc/docbook-xml-430:textproc/docbook-xml
> Change origin from textproc/docbook-xml-430 to textproc/docbook-xml for all dependencies? [y/N]: y

This half solved and half worsened my problem:

Not even
 > # pkg_deinstall -f xmlcatmgr
 > # portupgrade -RN xmlcatmgr
fixed this.

Luckily, the following did:
# pkg_deinstall -f gnome-doc-utils gtk-doc rarian
# portupgrade -RN gnome-doc-utils gtk-doc rarian



However I'm confused... "pkgdb -F" would have fixed this much more 
easily than removing and reinstalling a few ports. I really wouldn't 
want this to happen if the involved ports were hundreds and/or big.

Is the functionality of "pkgdb -F" really gone??? Does really no 
equivalent exist?



  bye & Thanks
