No. You have somehow convinced the pkg_add tool to install a 5.x package under 4.x. That won't work. A 4.11 package might work, but we don't guarantee that. You really should upgrade to a recent version of FreeBSD if at all possible. If nothing else, you should not be running 4.6.1 since that release was pulled and never saw the light of day for most of the world. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
