After running cvsup and portupgrade, I'm having some problems with xterm

Portupgrade failed because of the following:

Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

Don't delete any of those dependencies! If you do then you will
probably have to re-install those packages to get the dependencies back.
Great. I just had the same problem and I deleted the dependencies ;)
This is fun. If I had only waited 10 minutes...
I hope I didn't break anything beyond repair.....
I don't think so. Keep track of which ports you deleted the
dependencies from, then when you have the whole xorg-clients/xterm mess
sorted out, just force a re-install of those packages and the right
dependencies will come back. Time consuming, but not rocket science ;-)
I had to do something like that when interrupting gnome_upgrade early
seems to bugger everything a treat, but I got everything back OK (I think!).
