I've been having trouble with X11 ports, so I deleted all my packages

xorg port failed trying to build cairo, cairo failed because it
couldn't build libdrm, libdrm failed because cairo's headers weren't
installed.
So in summary, I can't install cairo because it wants to build libdrm,
which won't build/install because it wants cairo.
And I tried to install packages or the X11 distro from the ftp site
and also from my 7.2 RC-1 media. I tried setting the Options for
"any" as well as RELEASE_7_2_0, to no avail. My system is up and
running multi-user, so sysinstall failed to install any packages.
I built cairo with make -k install, so it would brute force past the
error, and after that I built libdrm and cairo again with portupgrade
-fr libdrm cairo.
Not only have I not seen or heard of this problem before, I can't see
any direct dependency of either libdrm or cairo on the other.
pkg_info -r cairo\* shows that cairo needs libdrm.
Information for cairo-1.8.6_1,1:
Depends on:
...
Dependency: libdrm-2.4.9
...
If anyone has a has a test system, where they could try my scenario,
i.e., deleting all installed packages and trying to install xorg, I
think you'll find it.
I have two identical systems that I have mobile racks in, allowing me to
swap out the hard drives. So I have 4 sets of drives, Lightning, Daemon,
FreakinBSD, and Gandalf. I saw this issue with Daemon. I need to
update FreakinBSD and Gandalf, so I'll try this again and get it in a
log file.
libdrm doesn't build without cairo.h in /usr/local/include, but it won't
be there until you're built cairo, which depends on libdrm.
