It will here too but only if you didn't explicitly install said package. You can also mark already installed packages as "explicitly installed" using the fine pkg_* tools. $ pkg_delete -n -a will probably give you a nice hint, too. >Btw.

Thus, an implicit "pkg_delete -a" with no questions asked? /Alexander
