This is undoubtedly a very "newbie" question, but I have seen this type of error a few times recently:
pkg_delete: unable to completely remove directory '/directory.name' pkg_delete: couldn't entirely delete package (perhaps the packing list is incorrectly specified?) It occurs at the end of a "deinstall" as a matter of updating a port "by hand". What is the proper procedure to correct this? Run "pkgdb -F"? Rm the offending files/dirs by hand? Both? The updated packages seem to run okay afterward if I ignore these errors; however, I am certain that they are really just swept under the carpet for the time being and will reemerge in the future (at a moment of maximum inconvenience no doubt). Also, is "make deinstall" the same as "uninstall"? Sorry, I guess I had two newbie questions. Thanks for your help.
