Hi,

What odd thing might be causing this behaviour?


(10) [wv]$ pwd
/usr/pkgsrc/converters/wv
(11) [wv]$ make
[...]
(12) [wv]$ make install
[...]
(13) [wv]$ pkg_info wv
pkg_info: can't find package `wv' installed or in a file!
(14) [wv]$ pkg_info -e '*wv*'
(15) [wv]$ pkg_info -e '*ord*ie*'
(16) [wv]$ pkg_delete wv
pkg_delete: package 'wv' not installed
(17) [wv]$  make reinstall
===> Installing for wv-0.7.2
===>  wv-0.7.2 is already installed - perhaps an older version?
*** If so, you may wish to ``pkg_delete wv-0.7.2'' and install
*** this package again by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly,
*** or use ``make update'' to upgrade it and all of its dependencies.
*** If you really wish to overwrite the old package of wv-0.7.2
*** without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
*** in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1

pkg_info: No matching pkg for /usr/pkg/bin/wvPS.

FWIW, on another machine, it installs just normally.
Weird...
