Subject:   /var/db/pkg wiped by Netscape install

Is it just me or do both the navigator47 and linux-netscape6 ports wipe
/var/db/pkg clean? This has happened to me on two 3.4-S machines and on
both the event coincided with the installation of Netscape (4.72 on one
and 6 on the other).

All that's left in /var/db/pkg is the set of +FILES that ought to be in
a package directory and their contents indicate they most definitely
pertain to netscape.

Can anyone confirm this, and whether using a package rather than a port
has the same effect?
