Hi Bapt,

I was in a hurry, so I went 'portupgrade clamav' which did the job
without any questions.... So running the debug stuff is not possible in
the current situation. There is nothing installed that triggers:
	pkg info | grep maria
Perhaps you have other "tools/tricks" to get some more info out of this?

(upgrade because of a security issue)
As far as I can remember is the upgrade to clamav-0.98.7 the first to
ask for mariadb-client, on this system.
And it is against the std freebsd 10 packages repo.

That said, I remember to have run into other packages that would like
mariadb stuff. But I'm not sure which ones they were, just hammered over
it like I did now. But this is a system which has not been polluted with
my own repo. Just ports building until I recently upgraded the system to
10.1, and started using pkg for ports-maintenance.
