When I upgrade my packages I go this message -

# pkg_add -ui -F update -F updatedepends
Not updating .libs-curl-7.16.0, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs-subversion-1.3.2, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs1-apr-1.0.1p2, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs1-apr-util-1.0.1p3, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs1-curl-7.15.4, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs1-mysql-client-5.0.22, remember to clean it
Not updating .libs1-neon-0.24.7p0, remember to clean it
Looking for updates: complete

I then searched for these files and found them here -
# find / -name ".libs*"
/var/db/pkg/.libs1-neon-0.24.7p0
/var/db/pkg/.libs-subversion-1.3.2
/var/db/pkg/.libs1-apr-1.0.1p2
/var/db/pkg/.libs1-apr-util-1.0.1p3
/var/db/pkg/.libs1-mysql-client-5.0.22
/var/db/pkg/.libs-curl-7.16.0
/var/db/pkg/.libs1-curl-7.15.4

There are only two files in them -

# ls -ltr /var/db/pkg/.libs1-neon-0.24.7p0
total 8
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   39 Nov  6 11:59 +DESC
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  203 Nov  6 11:59 +CONTENTS

My question is: what are these files and how do I get rid of them? Is
it ok to just delete them from those locations?

Thanks for any help.
