>Description:
BSDPAN is not pkgng aware
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a perl module using CPAN.
Later attempt to remove it.
pkg delete bsdpan-.... : unknown
pkg_delete bsdpan-.... : lots of error messages about converted and/or
updated packages being corrupt. (portmaster saves distfiles
in /var/db/pkg, but doesn't remove old installs when port is
updated.) Plus pkg2ng didn't move or change anything during
conversion...
Not sure what safe to remove...
While I can create a port of the perl module to work around this,
it leaves bsdpan-Mail-SpamAssassin-Compiled... as a package that isn't
registered with pkgng.
For now, I'm just removing the /var/db/pkg/bsdpan- directory and the
contents of /var/db/spamassassin/compiled, instead of pkg_delete before
each call to sa-compile.
>Fix:
BSDPAN should become pkgng aware.
