Happened several times to me. I never bothered to complain, thinking I messed someting up. Since it's so easy to start from scratch, i.e. delete all packages and replace anew, corrupt pkg database hasn't really been a big issue for me. I do think, however, that there must be other reasons for corruption, except an interruption at just the wrong time. BTW, what's the use of /var/cache/pkg? It's grown to > 2GB. Can I safely delete all packages from there?
