Ports upgraded and "package info for package xxxx is corrupt'

B

boris_net

Hi all,

I am on FreeBSD 9.1 STABLE. I attempted to upgrade my ports with posrtmaster following the instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING. My problem is postmaster portmaster seems to have done its job:
Code: 
[cmd=#]portmaster -a[/cmd]
===>>> Gathering distinfo list for installed ports

===>>> Starting check of installed ports for available updates

===>>> All ports are up to date

===>>> Exiting

If I check pkg_info I get the following message for many, many ports:
Code: 
pkg_info: the package info for package 'xterm-293' is corrupt
pkg_info: the package info for package 'name_of_the-ports' is corrupt
However using pkg the same port looks installed:
Code: 
pkg info | grep xterm-293
xterm-293                      Terminal emulator for the X Window System
And this is applicable to all the ports reported as having a corrupted package info by pkg_info.

Should I be worried about this? If so, any pointers as to how to so9lve the problem?

Thanks!
 
Which package manager are you using? The "out-of-the-box" pkg_* command files or the new pkgng infrastructure? Because they are basically exclusive, if you're using one you shouldn't be trying to use the other.

And depending on which of the two you're using it could possibly explain the error messages you got.

Apart from the errors which the package manager gives you, are there any other signs which makes you doubt the result of the upgrade procedure? Are there any newly installed (or updated) ports giving some weird error messages or something?
 
Hi @good-beastie,

portmaster -n --check-depends reports no error, just that's it's checking the dependencies, not entirely sure if it's successful:
