Pkg upgrade tries to remove KDE!

[siealex]

My setup: FreeBSD 15.0 on a VMware virtual machine, KDE 6.5.5, "latest" repos.
Running pkg upgrade displays "Installed packages to be REMOVED" and 55 packages related to KDE, including plasma6-plasma, plasma6-plasma-desktop and qt6-webview.
What can cause this behavior? Usually pkg upgrade does not remove existing packages even if they are not currently available in the repo.

Just wait a day or more.
Something depended upon them would fallen out on most recent build (including cases invoked within too heavy builds, causing timeout) and wait for it to be appear again.

Typically, if a package is not available in the repo, it is kept unchanged in the system, not removed during upgrade.

I don't think that's how it worked.

Just a guess. Some underlying library was updated. The updated KDE package hasn't happened yet. The old library is removed - along with anything that depends upon it.
