Anyone seeing pkg_delete not run +DEINSTALL? (I have more comments below.)

Okay, I rebuilt and reinstalled kdelibs3 and then did a pkg_delete and the
directories were not removed. And I installed and deinstalled using -v to
look at verbose details.

The pkg_add showed that it ran the scripts:

Running install with PRE-INSTALL for kdelibs-3.4.0nb4.
...
Running install with POST-INSTALL for kdelibs-3.4.0nb4.

And I saw the "Installing files needed by kdelibs-3.4.0nb4" message so I
know the +INSTALL script was used.

But the pkg_delete only showed the "Delete directory" for the @dirrm
listed in x11/kdelibs3/PLIST. And it never showed the +DEINSTALL message
about applications.menu (the CONF_FILES).

I don't think it is a kdelibs3 problem. But maybe a problem with
pkg_delete.

This is FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE. pkg_delete is from bootstrapping on March 8.

It is:
