pkg-static: oniguruma6-6.6.1 conflicts with oniguruma5-5.9.6_1

[Aknot]

Trying to upgrade to devel/oniguruma6 with portmaster(8) but getting this error:

pkg-static: oniguruma6-6.6.1 conflicts with oniguruma5-5.9.6_1 (installs files into the same place).
Problematic file: /usr/local/bin/onig-config
*** Error code 70

This command has been saved to /tmp/portmasterfail.txt

When using pkg delete, it says

Installed packages to be REMOVED:
        oniguruma5-5.9.6_1
        php56-mbstring-5.6.32
        php56-extensions-1.0
        php-composer-1.5.2

Number of packages to be removed: 4
The operation will free 7 MiB.
Proceed with deinstalling packages? [y/N]:

But I'm afraid that if I remove all these php-extensions, it will break the server, if I'm not able to reinstall oniguruma afterwards.

  AFFECTS: users of PHP and its modules
  AUTHOR: eugen@FreeBSD.org

  All lang/php* ports switched to depend on devel/oniguruma6
  instead of previous oniguruma version some time ago.

  If you have not moved from devel/oniguruma5 before and
  have troubles updating PHP,

  for users of portmaster:
        portmaster -o devel/oniguruma6 devel/oniguruma5
        portmaster -r devel/oniguruma6

  for users of portupgrade:
        portupgrade -o devel/oniguruma6 devel/oniguruma5
        portupgrade -fr devel/oniguruma6

  pkg should handle this automatically.

See /usr/ports/UPDATING.

portmaster -o devel/oniguruma6 devel/oniguruma5
portmaster -r devel/oniguruma6

See /usr/ports/UPDATING.

Thanks, don't know why I missed UPDATING this time

I ran portsnap in between the changes, so I needed to change into:
portmaster -o devel/oniguruma devel/oniguruma5

Here I had to do the same as the friend Alldo. The commanded by / usr / ports / UPDATING did not work and I had to give the following command:

portmaster -o devel / oniguruma devel / oniguruma5

There is a later entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING (20171112):

  for users of portmaster:
    portmaster -o devel/oniguruma devel/oniguruma6
    portmaster -r devel/oniguruma

so if you have later updated devel/oniguruma and overlooked this, you will run into the problem.
