It is based on just using -a (not -f, not -y) and seeing if any FreeBSD-* are referenced in the output: there are such involved. One of the examples has pkg locked. That does prevent any deletion of anything. With pkg unlocked things were odder but it asked about if FreeBSD-libvmmapi-dev should be removed from the request. The examples have the commands and the outputs. That is one reason that I reference my comment instead of other reports that are around. I'm not the first to report on the issue. This is separate from my earlier reports that: pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base does not "work out of the box" when FreeBSD-base is disabled. Even "pkg update -r FreeBSD-base" does not work for that =kind of context. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
