>Description:
	This is on a system where $PORTSDIR/x11-fonts does not exist,
	and the respective packages have been installed with pkg_add -r.

	sputnik1# pkgdb -aFO
	--->  Checking the package registry database
	Stale origin: 'x11-fonts/fontconfig': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
	[database version mismatch/bump detected] Permission denied
	database file error
	/usr/local/sbin/pkgdb:1100: [BUG] Segmentation fault
	ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i386-freebsd6]
	Abort

	This is probably related to my other report on the portupgrade
	tool (ports/112818), whereas this report is on pkgdb.

	The one thing we absolutely should do is to provide the name of
	the concrete database as part of the error message also in this
	case.

	Also, why does pkgdb say "Permission" denied when I am running
	this as root?
