Thanks for the reply, but that didn't seem to help my problem. I assume that you meant 'pkg check -Ba', but that just checks the database and doesn't regenerate the database. The pkg check did find some missing files, so I forced the reinstall of two packages and that eliminated the warnings from the check. Unfortunately, I still got the same warnings when I tried to upgrade, so I exited out again. > On 12/05/2014 23:58, Carl Johnson wrote: >> I have just tried to run a 'pkg upgrade', but I am getting a lot of 'SAT >> solver' problems.
