I've made a mistake of installing pkgng on 9.0-amd64 but since there is no

What would be the correct procedure to achieve that ?

Invoking `pkg delete -a` still leaves some files including /usr/sbin/pkg.
Not easy.  You'ld have to delete the pkg port, undo any additional
configuration you may have added to eg. /etc/make.conf (ie. remove
WITH_PKGNG settings), undo any patches to portmaster (if you're using
that) and then reinstall all your ports using the original package tools
to rebuild /var/db/pkg/ contents.

/usr/sbin/pkg is part of base nowadays.  You don't want to delete that.

When was pkgng made part of base ?
The bootstrap binary is in base, not pkgng.

/usr/sbin/pkg would be from pkgng if you are using it to delete itself
then the problem you are experiencing is the file is busy at the time of
deletion. Try pkg_delete instead ?

Wrong, this is the bootstrap binary. The pkg binary is in LOCALBASE.
