Solved pkg installing and uninstalling the same packages over and over again

Hello,

Since successfully upgrading to FreeBSD-15.0-RELEASE, I keep having this minor annoyance:
Whenever I run
sh: 
pkg update && pkg upgrade
, this same scenario happens:

Code: 
$ doas pkg upgrade

The following 5 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):

New packages to be INSTALLED:
    libcroco: 0.6.13_3 [FreeBSD-ports]
    libsrtp2: 2.7.0 [FreeBSD-ports]
    localedata: 5.4_2 [FreeBSD-ports]
    pcre: 8.45_4 [FreeBSD-ports]
    portaudio: 19.6.0_7,1 [FreeBSD-ports]

Number of packages to be installed: 5

The process will require 10 MiB more space.

Proceed with this action? [y/N]: y

These 5 packages always want to get installed by freebsd upgrade. I may choose to install them, they install fine. Yet, whenever I run pkg autoremove, they get immediately removed.

Code: 
[I] ~ $ doas pkg autoremove

Deinstallation has been requested for the following 5 packages:

Installed packages to be REMOVED:
    libcroco: 0.6.13_3
    libsrtp2: 2.7.0
    localedata: 5.4_2
    pcre: 8.45_4
    portaudio: 19.6.0_7,1

Number of packages to be removed: 5

The operation will free 10 MiB.

Proceed with deinstalling packages? [y/N]:

Again, if I remove them, they will want to get installed immediately next time I run freebsd upgrade. How do I resolve this? What may be the reason for this to happen? Not a single one of those packages was installed manually, they were pulled in as some kind of dependency to something.
 
Ok, now by repairing the conflicts according to https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/conflicting-packages-after-upgrade-14-3-15-0.101203/
I'm down to one package.

Code: 
root@asia:~ # pkg autoremove

Deinstallation has been requested for the following 1 packages:

Installed packages to be REMOVED:
    localedata: 5.4_2

The operation will free 1 MiB.

Ok, now it solved itself. The package no longer installs and uninstalls perpetually. No idea what caused it and no idea what solved it. The package was unistalled and it did not demand to be installed with pkg upgrade anymore. This was definitely related to the upgrade to 15.0-RELEASE though.
