pkg upgrade wants to install pkg-devel - why?

skocdopolet · Nov 10, 2014

Hi folks,

I have a issue with pkg-1.3.8 on FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE-p12. I have two identical web servers. All software was installed by pkg (I'm not using ports).

When I run pkg update; pkg upgrade, on the first server all is OK. But on the second server, pkg wants to upgrade itself to version pkg-devel 1.4.0.a4 and I don't know why?

What should I check, or what I am doing wrong?

Thank you.
Tomas
