This seems to be broken with current (with the new pkg_install) vs. building from source from pkgsrc-quarterly The new tools use the new location by default, but the quarterly branch uses PKG_DBDIR?=/var/db/pkg, so when you build packages the build process looks (and writes) to the wrong place. So you need PKG_DBDIR=/usr/pkg/pkgdb in mk.conf -uwe
