I've ben running into problems with pkgdb. I tried removing 
/var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db then running 'pkgdb -F' .

I get the following:

[Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 146 
packages found (-0 +146) 
.................................................................................................................................................. 
done]
[Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'] [Updating the portsdb

[BUG] Bus Error
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-freebsd5]

---> Checking the package registry database
Missing origin: bsdpan-Compress-Zlib-1.22
Abort (Core Dumped)

# […] UID:0 exited on signal 6

Does anyone have any idea why ruby is aborting? (I know next to nothing 
about ruby18)

Thanks for any help.
