Package checksum errors.

I am attempting to fix the checksum warnings for mime mess:
Code: 
# pkg check
Checking all packages:   2%
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/XMLnamespaces
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/aliases
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/generic-icons
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/globs
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/globs2
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/magic
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/mime.cache
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/subclasses
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/treemagic
caja-1.28.0_2: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/mime/types
Checking all packages:  55%
mate-control-center-1.28.1_3: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
Checking all packages: 100%
Since pkg check -r <package> no longer works, what is the suggestion to "fix" those, please?

Maybe reinstall the problem packages?

Running pkg check -r does not solve the problem since the -r switch is disabled / gone / ignored in 13.5-RELEASE-p3 as was stated in my original post:

I did not see a working solution in the provided URLs to other forum posts. Does anyone have a known working solution to stop these bogus checksum errors with mime mess? TIA!
 
The bug is already reported, adding your own experience over there might help a bit to accelerate things:

277769 – x11-fm/caja Package cheksums on several files do not match on "pkg check -s"

bugs.freebsd.org bugs.freebsd.org

If a package has a checksum mismatch, I would first uninstall it, then to prevent pkg from reinstalling the same corrupted version, I would delete all cached packages using pkg clean -a.
I don't say that will fix this issue here(because the problem sounds to be something else) but I think it's the right way to deal with checksum mismatch, in case one day it happens again.
 
For completeness: Uninstalling caja and mate-control-center, which uninstalls the mate desktop, then cleaning the pkg cache, and reinstalling it all ... does not fix the misreported mime checksums.

For the record, this has happened with mime files for a few years now in my experience. I could always rely on a tool in my FreeBSD administrator's toolbox ( pkg check -r <package>) to clean that up. Then someone sneaked into my FreeBSD workshop and stole the -r from my FreeBSD administrator's toolbox command without asking me if I needed it. All I want is a replacement tool for what was taken from me, or my original tool returned.
 
What would be excellent is if official pkg just had recompute as a compile time option. That way, administrators like me who want it could compile from official ports collection.
 
This is exactly the reason why pkg check -r has been removed, the issue here is a package which is buggy: caja is packaging files which do not belong to the package but are supposed to be generated by the trigger provided by the shared-mime-info, so the right fix is to fix the caja package (and/or report the bug) and not to run pkg check -r (note I am working on fixing the package).
