Re: postgres versioning

Actually, there is probably no issue with pkgin.
pkgin -f update cured the symptoms.
Sometimes in the history of pkgsrc, in 2009, perl must
have been depending on postgresql82 and this was recorded in the
pkgin database.
So, just a combination of my inexperience with pkgin and some
perverse dependency holding in a past version of pkgsrc.
