If it was me, I would think that when libtool-1.5.22_1 was upgraded to 
libtool-1.5.22_2, the registration for libtool-1.5.22_1 wasn't removed 
from the database properly. So, yes, it would be best to delete the 
registration of libtool-1.5.22_2 through pkgdb -F. Answer [no] yes <cr> 
and get rid of it.
