I've been having a problem reinstalling multimedia/2mandvd with
portupgrade for a while now.  The build succeeds, but I get an odd error
when portupgrade tries to uninstall the old version before it installs
the new version.

====> Compressing man pages (compress-man)

[Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 1383 packages found - done]

** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
	! multimedia/2mandvd (2ManDVD-1.8.5)	(uninstall error)


I don't see any issues if I do a manual deinstallation using "pkg
delete", and then reinstalling the port works fine.

# pkg delete 2ManDVD-1.8.5

Deinstallation has been requested for the following 1 packages (of 0 packages in the universe):

The operation will free 31 MB.

I don't know where the "invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII" error is
coming from.
