When I try, it says

===> Deinstalling for mysql-server-3.23.35nb1.

It's trying to deinstall the new version, which is not installed, leaving
all the 3.22.32 files untouched.

If I try to just install the new version, I get this:

# cd /usr/pkgsrc/databases/mysql-server
# make && make install
===> Installing for mysql-server-3.23.35nb1
cd: can't cd to /usr/pkgsrc/databases/mysql-server/work/mysql-3.23.35
