I think you can't do nothing except reinstalling your software unless you have a backup of your old /var/db/pkg.

If you have deleted all contents of /var/db/pkg, and you don't have a backup, you're screwed. You'll have to reinstall every to rebuild the db. If, however, you just deleted pkgdb.db then pkgdb -U will repopulate it.

From there you could do a script that does something like: for $program in fileofpackagenames pkg_delete $program pkg_add $program Just a thought -Tom Grove ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Try:
locate /var/db/pkg | awk '{FS = \/\\+.*$} {print $1}' | \
awk '{FS = /$} {print $1}' | sort -u
This will reduce the output to one line per package.
