.... I converted from using linux-f10 to using linux-c6 for linux 
compatibility earlier this week. There were no linux-c6 pkg's, so I used 
ports to do that install, & I also 'pkg delete'-ed all of linux-f10 in 
the process. I just did a 'pkg upgrade -y' & it deleted all of the 
installed linux-c6 stuff & reinstalled linux-f10 !!!! I would like to 
believe this was pilot error, but that is getting to be a bit of a 
stretch .... I can & will manually clean up the mess, but WTF is going 
on here w/ pkg ? That behavior is 100% counter-intuitive to me, bug ?
