more elegantly,

portupgrade -Rrv -f -o databases/postgresql82-client postgresql-client

but you have to account for having to do the dump/restore in there  
manually.  This will also force-upgrade all software depending on the  
postgresql-client port (of which the server is one).

[Decibel!]

You can force the pkg_delete with -f (or maybe -F). You'll want to  
delete all the postgresql (ie: postgresql-*) packages as well, and  
then re-install them after you install 8.2.

I've got 8.1 running fine.  I want to upgrade to 8.2.  Problem is,  
FreeBSD's portupgrade utility only wants to upgrade my existing 8.1  
installation.


So I grabbed the latest ports collection, which includes  
postgresql82-client and postgresql82-server.  Running 'make  
install' on postgresql82-client gives me:


===  Installing for postgresql-client-8.2.5_1

===  postgresql-client-8.2.5_1 conflicts with installed package(s):
  postgresql-client-8.1.10

  They install files into the same place.
  Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1

So I ran: pkg_delete postgresql-client-8.1.10

... and got this error:

pkg_delete: package 'postgresql-client-8.1.10' is required by these  
other packages

and may not be deinstalled:
dovecot-1.0.0
kde-3.5.6_1
koffice-1.6.2_3,2
php5-extensions-1.1
php5-pgsql-5.2.3
postgresql-libpqxx-2.6.9
postgresql-plperl-8.1.9
postgresql-server-8.1.10_2

I seem to have hit a brick wall.  I tried installing postgresql82- 
server first but it wouldn't do that without the 8.2 client library  
installed.
