pkg silliness - FreeBSD 10

Ok,

So I decided to give pkg a go for installing a complete Gnome2 system. Works well. Last pkg upgrade I did to keep things current worked well too. Except for today.

Code:
root@desktop:/usr/home/alex # pkg upgrade

Can't remove docbook500-5.0_4 since it will also want to remove about another 100 things that depend on it.

Everything was installed via pkg. Why can't it manage a simple upgrade?

Please read /usr/ports/UPDATING. Yes, you also have to read it if you only use packages.

Code:
20140219:
  AFFECTS: users of textproc/docbook*
  AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org

  The textproc/docbook-* ports have been consolidated into two ports
  textproc/docbook-sgml and textproc/docbook-xml.

  Before upgrading you should force the removal of the existing ports, they
  will conflict with the new ones.

  pkg users can run:

    pkg delete -f docbook-xml\* docbook-sk\* docbook\[2345\]\?\?-\* docbook-4\*

  the other users can run:

    pkg_delete -f docbook-xml\* docbook-sk\* docbook\[2345\]\?\?-\* docbook-4\*

There is even a PKGNG command for doing it: pkg updating [-d date]
I thought the command didn't work but it turns out I don't have docbook installed so it won't show the message on my system. It tries to only show relevant entries relating to the ports/packages you have installed.

It would be nice if pkg-updating(8) showed entries for all available packages, not just installed. I have made a ticket requesting to add such feature:
