Hi all,
   I was rebuilding all my ports due to an error in my library. After
a couple days, I think most of the ports were rebuilt, but some remain
(skipped, error, etc).  I then try to rebuild myself (by doing make
deinstall; make reinstall). I started with mplayer. The compilation
succeeded, but can't "make deinstall" my existed port:

# make deinstall
===>  Deinstalling for multimedia/mplayer
===>   Deinstalling mplayer-0.99.11_8
pkg_delete: package 'mplayer-0.99.11_8' is required by these other packages
and may not be deinstalled (but I'll delete it anyway):
linux-mplayerplug-in-3.50_1
mencoder-0.99.11_2
mkxvcd-2.0.2_5
smplayer-0.6.4
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
*** Error code 139

Stop in /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer.


it didn't give me too much to trouble shoot, any help from you guys is
appreciated.
