I was forced to switch to pkgng on a 9.2 box and I'm now noticing a strange behaviour. Before, "pkg_deinstall -R foo" would deinstall foo and all ports on which foo depended, except those who were needed by other ports. Now, "pkg_deinstall -R foo" will deinstall foo, all ports on which foo depends and all ports depending on the ports on which foo depends. E.g. Port A depends on B Port B depends on C Port D depends on C With the old behaviour, "pkg_deinstall -R A" would deinstall A and B (but not C). Now it will deinstall A, B, C and D. Is this normal or expected? How can I restore the old behaviour? Thanks av.
