# pkg_info |grep p5-XML
p5-XML-Parser-2.34nb5 Perl extension interface to James Clark's XML parser, expat
p5-XML-NamespaceSupport-1.09 Perl module to the SAX2 NamespaceSupport class
p5-XML-SAX-0.15     Perl interface to the SAX2 XML Parser
p5-XML-Writer-0.601 Perl module for writing XML documents
p5-XML-LibXML-Common-0.13nb6 Routines and constants common for XML::LibXML and XML::GDOME

So no, because I'm doing a pkg_chk update and p5-XML-LibXML was out of date:
 textproc/p5-XML-LibXML - p5-XML-LibXML-1.62.001 < p5-XML-LibXML-1.63
so it was removed but not the p5-XML-SAX package because it was up to date.

I don't fully get it what you mean here.

But it sounds like this change requires a PKGREVISION bump of all affected packages.

Yes, thats the content of this file.

A try to deinstall results in this problem:

original MD5 checksum failed, not deleting: /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini

So the file is still there :(

I manually deleted it and then the problem is gone.

Thank you for the hint.
