Hello,
I did a full system upgrade (running now ) and then got current pkgsrc.
Now I try to run pkg_rolling-replace -uv ; it compiled for days, then stops.
disc# pkg_admin check

Hmm. Thats interesting. I've seen that happen on one of my 9.2-STABLE
systems when doing a pkgin upgrade. Although in my case it was librsvg
that got clobbered.
Instead of the correct pkgdb data the folder existed but contained a
random core file. The core file wasn't from any pkg tool.
I ended up with:
/usr/pkg/pkgdb/librsvg-2.52.6/gdk-pixbuf-query.core
Which isn't even a tool I use its just something pulled in as a
dependendency.
disc# pkg_admin rebuild
pkg_admin: glib2-2.70.2nb1: can't open `+CONTENTS'
disc# pkg_admin rebuild-tree
pkg_admin: Cannot read +CONTENTS of package glib2-2.70.2nb1
I don't know what else to try to fix.
The files in that folder are container within the pkg .tar.gz file if
you have it around so you can extract them into the folder and then use
pkg_admin to put things back together. That's what I did to sort myself
out :)
Something like:
tar zxf glib-2.70.2nb1.tgz +*
