I'm no expert at this but that doesn't look to be a problem.

I'd go for installing pkg_chk from the pkgtools directory and running 
with -n option to get an idea of what if any mismatched packages you 
have. "pkg_chk -g" gives an inventory of currently installed packages
creating a file /usr/pkgsrc/pkgchk.conf and you can use that as base 
for -D or -U options to add or remove 'directory/package' from list 
that's checked and -L or redirect to log the output. Note pkg_chk can 
take a long time.

Now I hope I'm rescued by someone more experienced.
