Hello,
Please could someone familiar with pkg_add(1) confirm whether the
behavior I'm experiencing is normal?
My mail server has many packages installed that I like to keep up to
date using pkg_add -uiv
However, pkg_add seems to get confused with regard to the versions of
the packages.
For instance,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $: pkg_add -uiv
Error from http://openbsd.blueyonder.co.uk/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386/:

Candidates for updating curl-7.15.3 -> curl-7.15.1 curl-7.15.3

Is this expected behavior?
Also, previously on the list [A little script to remove packages don't
needed] a script was posted to remove dependencies that are no longer
required but was contested as buggy. What is the recommended way of
doing this?
Thanks for your time,
Tom
