OK, from piecing together different posts regarding this problem, I came up with a solution. This is a problem when docbook-sk is removed from /var/db/pkg but not removed from the catalog files. The entries in those files cause the install to fail, so, one way to fix it is to remove the files and allow them to be rebuilt or replaced: # rm /usr/local/share/sgml/catalog.ports # rm /usr/local/share/xml/catalog.ports Then force docbook-xml to rebuild, so it rebuilds (or replaces, not sure) the catalog files: # portmanager textproc/docbook-xml -l -f (portupgrade could also be used, of course ...) Then: # pkgdb -F ... which pulled in docbook-sk, and it installed without a problem. - jt
