No, not on my NetBSD machine at any rate.

xdg-utils got installed along with Lyx and the qt5 packages.

I have a tendency to mix 'n match, or, rather, sometimes -- as 
you sagely note -- mix 'n mismatch pkgsrc, which requires me to 
let my NetBSD system from time to time grind through 
pkg_rolling-replace to straighten out the kind of problems to 
which you allude. That task was accomplished as recently as last 
week.
