Re: After following the advise from UPDATING about pythoin-3.11, 'pkg add' now says: pkg: "Cannot solve problem using SAT solver" and attempts to install and then offers to remove py39- packages

You are right. Package DB contains both py39- and py311- packages:
$ pkg search py311- | wc
    4477   33240  346412
$ pkg search py39- | wc
    3506   25946  270059

Since pkg has no awareness of the current python version - it attempts 
to install all found candidates for each particular PKGORIGIN.


Anybody knows what caused this regression in the package database?


Thanks,
Yuri
