I have some package corruption and have had no luck fixing the problem.
I have tried pkgdb -f, tried to remove and reinstall, and any other

Can anyone offer some suggestions on this problem?
Here are some of the problem packages.
I even tried a force and rebuild all packages, but obviously no luck.
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-atk-1.2.0_3' is corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-expat-1.95.5_3' is
corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-fontconfig-2.2.3' is
corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-glib2-2.2.1_3' is
corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-gtk2-2.2.1_5' is corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-jpeg-6b.15_4' is corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-pango-1.2.1_3' is
corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-png-1.2.7_6' is corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.08_2'
is corrupt
pkg_version: the package info for package 'linux-tiff-3.6.1_3' is corrupt
Can you pkg_delete -f <package.name> ?
Also delete the work directory in each packages port directory if it
exists.
Then try running portmanager.
At least some of those ports get installed by linuxpluginwrapper.
