pkg_tarup is gone as a port. The easiest way to fix this is to: 1. pkg_delete -f pkg_tarup-\* 2. pkg_delete portupgrade -\* 3. cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade 4. make install clean 5. pkgdb -F That should do the trick. portupgrade does not really handle the removal of dependencies when the depended package simply goes away, even when they are dependencies of portupgrade, itself.
