that looks a nice way to check that the package compiled is OK, but in 
this case i think that something is wrong wiith my actually installed 
packages. I want to remove them, but I do fail because even pkg_info 
fails, so I am wondering how I can remove of update the offending 
pacakeg cleanly.

Thanks though,
