When I try to update a package as a regular user, I get following output:
$ bmake update
===> Deinstalling for SDL_sound-1.0.1nb6
=> Becoming ``root'' to make su-deinstall (/bin/su)
Password:
Running /usr/pkg/sbin/pkg_delete -K /var/db/pkg SDL_sound-1.0.1nb5
pkg_delete: package `SDL_sound-1.0.1nb5' is required by other packages:
dosbox-0.65nb3
Then, after building the package, I receive the error that the package
is already installed.
However, when I execute "bmake update" as root, both SDL_sound and
dosbox are uninstalled.
