===========

this works:
 	pkg_deinstall docbook-utils-0.6.14_7
 	cd /usr/ports/sysutils/moreutils
 	make install

the moreutils port installs textproc/docbook2X by if "docbook2man" isn't 
found.

i'm not sure why docbook-utils-0.6.14_7 was installed. "pkg_info -R 
docbook-utils-0.6.14_7" showed nothing. pkgdb found nothing to correct 
before or after uninstalling it.

thanks.
