>Description:
pkgsrc/pkgtools/x11-links/Makefile uses the following code to create a list of installed dirs which would need to be rmdir'd if that package is removed:
${FILES_LIST_CMD} | ${SED} -e "s,/[^/]*$,," | ${SORT} -u | ....
If the file list, as is at least the case with files/xsgi, contains files in a nested directory ../a/b but none directly in ../a only .../a/b enters the list, and thus later .../a is not being removed when pkg_deleting. Since ${LOALBASE}/share/x11-links won't be empty it cannot be rmdir'd then, and pkg_delete fails (since MKDIR actually uses -p it does not matter for creating the dir in the first place).
