# pkg_delete wget-1.8.2_6 pkg_delete: the package info for package 'pkg' is corrupt pkg_delete: the package info for package 'pkg' is corrupt pkg_delete: the package info for package 'pkg' is corrupt # pkg_info | grep mysql pkg_info: the package info for package 'pkg' is corrupt mysql-client-4.0.21 Multithreaded SQL database (client) php4-mysql-4.3.9 The mysql shared extension for php Is it possible to remove all installed packages and start over?
