Hi,
I had mutt installed.
I forgot to remove it.
Now i supped the current pkgsrc.
I did a make install.
After this i got:
===> Installing for mutt-1.0.1
===> mutt-1.0.1 is already installed - perhaps an older version?
If so, you may wish to ``pkg_delete mutt-1.0.1'' 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 mutt-1.0.1
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1
Stop.
After this i tryed to remove with pkg_delete mutt-1.0.1
This was the result:
pkg_delete: package 'mutt-1.0.1' doesn't have a prefix
Then i tried to see what was installed:
pkg_info -I -a | sort -f
But it gave this:
pkg_info: show_file: can't open '+COMMENT' for reading
Any suggestions what i can do now?
Bye,
Reinoud.
