A "simple upgrade" involves removing the old version of the JPEG
package. When performing the removal, the user was given a list of other
packages, that depend on the JPEG -- and saw pkg_delete exit. *That* was
the warning...
Yes, `make deinstall' invokes pkg_delete with the `-f', thus making it
too easy to shoot oneself in the foot... This may be a problem worth
addressing, but the warning is still there...
