I did both: renamed the entry to myrepo and added a new file:

# ls -l /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/
total 8
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   26  7 dic 11:30 FreeBSD.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  114  7 dic 11:21 myrepo.conf

# cat /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/*

FreeBSD: { enabled: no }

           myrepo: {
               url: "file:/usr/PKGDIR.20150726",
               enabled: true,
           }

Now 'pkg -vv' shows only myrepo; the 'pkg upgrade -f' ended up with
reinstallation of all ~1000 packages;

but all this did not solved the problem;

The output of STDERR is here: http://www.unixarea.de/pkg-stderr.txt
(4 MByte, 100.000 lines)
