>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.
