You can try "pkg check -r", see man pkg-check
pkg check -r or pkg check --recompute recalculates and sets the
checksums
of installed packages. This command should only be used when the
admin-
istrator has made modifications that invalidate a package checksum.
Spontaneous checksum problems can indicate data or security problems.
