I also resolved the problem: Here's what I did,

csup -h a-local-mirror.freebsd.org /etc/ports.supfile
rm -rf /usr/ports/INDEX-6.DB
rm -rf /usr/ports/INDEX-6
portsdb -F
pkgdb -F
portsdb -u

I am aware that some steps are redundant, but it did fix the problem, I
had to clear out a lot of stale dependencies with pkgdb, and had
to deinstall Linux ABI (partially manually) and reinstall, as well as
it's dependant packages, however, this resolved everything.

The steps outlined above proved ineffective for me.

--thanks, hope this helps other people.
