pkg: POST-DEINSTALL script failed

Hello, I encountered this problem with qt5-testlib, which keeps on reinstalling and uninstalling itself whenever I run pkg update && pkg upgrade and pkg autoremove.

So, here is the output of pkg clean -a && pkg -d install -f qt5-testlib && pkg remove qt5-testlib

Bash: 
~> pls pkg clean -a
The following package files will be deleted:
        /var/cache/pkg/qt5-testlib-5.15.2_1~8682ca4f00.pkg
        /var/cache/pkg/qt5-testlib-5.15.2_1.pkg
The cleanup will free 160 KiB

Proceed with cleaning the cache? [y/N]: Y
Deleting files: 100%
All done
~> pls pkg -d install -f qt5-testlib

So, what should I try next? I don't care about this package, it got in as a dependency, but whenever I run pkg upgrade, it wants to get in again:
Code: 
New packages to be INSTALLED:
        openldap24-client: 2.4.59_2
        qt5-testlib: 5.15.2_1
 
Not sure whether there's already a PR, but this topic was discussed on #bsdports (EFNet). pkg autoremove will remove the package again (it should only be a build dependency), so there's definitely one or two things fishy with this pkg currently…

(in short: the problem is not at your end)

It is not, I don't care about a few kbytes on my drive.

grahamperrin said:
If the dependency is proper, then pkg upgrade will properly install the package.
Click to expand...
Yes, it will, but it will get removed again whenever I issue pkg autoremove with POST-DEINSTALL script failed.
It will get installed again whenever I issue pkg upgrade.
Pkg will install/uninstall the package ad absurdum.

For the time being, I locked the package, so pkg autoremove won't remove it.

You can create then register a fake manifest, as outlined at and under <https://forums.FreeBSD.org/threads/80412/post-528187> however I can not guess the mid-/long-term impact of doing so for devel/qt5-testlib.

Thanks, I'll look into it.
