I started with a 9.2-release system with xfce-4.10_5 plus related/needed other stuff and did the following: freebsd-update to 9.2-RELEASE-p10 #0; updated ports with portsnap; and finally installed pgk via pkg_add. So to try some things I did: 'pkg info' which looked okay; 'pkg check -d -n -a' returned no ouput, I figured no news was good news. For pkg stats I got: Local package database: Installed packages: 418 Disk space occupied: 1 GB Still cool. Then I tried 'pkg upgrade -n' and got 'Nothing to do' after several hundred of the following: "pkg: sqlite: near "ORDER": syntax error (pkgdb.c:3186)" probably 418 lines but written to SYSERROR so difficult to count. Several questions come to mind: 1) The system was build around Dec 2013, so I think 'nothing to do is probably not the right answer. 2) Are the sql errors correct? Probably because you can not order the null set but should be suppressed?? I am late to the game but I did scan PRs and questions before asking. An unrelated question. Everything I used seems to be there except for pkg_tree. Perhaps the need goes away but I would not expect an autoupdate of 418 packages to work after 7 months of no changes. pkg_tree was helpful in attacking upgrading in cases I did not want to delete all and start again. Thanks for any thoughts and/or guidence Doug
