I see, I did not understand what you meant at first.

What I posted was the result of a simple "pkg upgrade", which is what I 
usually do to update the machine, and usually works quite fine.

I have not tested forcing all packages reinstallation ("pkg upgrade -f" 
if I get it correctly).

That is something I was already planning to do. Will report back 
tomorrow for that.
