If pkg(8) complains about a corrupted database, the first thing to try is=
:

   # rm /var/db/pkg/repo-*.sqlite

The vast majority of the time this will cure the problem, and it's safe
enough to do, as everything in those repo-*.sqlite databases is derived
from repository catalogues which you can just download again.

	Cheers,
