>Description:
I run "pkg_chk -u" this morning and it figured out that it needs to update
Mesa. After some recompiling I ran it again few minutes ago and it reported
*again* that the Mesa packages are out of date. What it apparently did
was to remove the Mesa package, recheck and then install the old binary
packages.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use "pkg_chk -u" with some outdated binary packages in "/usr/pkgsrc/packages".
>Fix:
None provided.
