When I had problems, the pkgdb -F would die and the port with the 
problem was in the list were it died. Portupgrade, for example, used 
to use pkg_tarup and it would cause problems when you tried to 
portupgrade itself. I think you are seeing is something like that. You 
have an installed port that is not in the current INDEX lists. I 
thought at some point that "pkgdb -fu" was supposed to fix that.

Some of this was easier to fix by pkg_delete portupgrade and its 
dependancies and installing from scratch. I think the cutoff was 
something like 0805. If you had a version before that, you reinstalled 
portupgrade from scratch. That was quite awhile ago and someone just 
woke me up by calling me on the telephone after 3 hours of sleep.
