 Here's what happened when I followed the suggestions. Not very helpful, 
 really. :(
 ---
 pantheon-vbox# pkg_delete pkg_install-20150508
 Package `pkg_install-20150508' is still required by other packages:
          pkgin-0.8.0nb1
 
 pantheon-vbox# /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/bin/bmake update
 bmake: don't know how to make update. Stop
 
 bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
 
 pantheon-vbox# /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/bin/bmake replace
 bmake: don't know how to make replace. Stop
 
 bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap

 When I figured out I should "cd /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install" before 
 trying option #2 and #3 (not entirely obvious, but sure, not too 
 difficult to figure out) I could run bmake update. However, when 
 restarting the bootstrap I instead get stuck at:

 Package `bootstrap-mk-files-20150908' is still required by other packages:

 ... and at this point I didn't pursue this further, so I don't know how 
 many more package conflicts that await.
