Florent,

At this moment I'rumming FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE. I ugraded the source and ports 
today and compiled everything
I want to switch from the perl script supplied with postfix to gld.

Compiling ports with mysql support always complains that the mysql-client is 
not installed
I am using the latest mysql40-server and mysql40-client compiled from the 
ports


Jack

Sounds like your pkgdb is corrupt. Try doing "pkgdb -fu" (without the 
quotes),
if that doesn't work rename or rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db and run the command
again to build a new pkgdb.
