          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

In the event the local copy of the repository catalogue get corrupted the
command 
"pkg update -f" must be run. I propose a change to both the error message and
the PKG-UPDATE man page to suggest this. User's having been googling for this
answer since 2014. I started using FreeBSD with version 4.5 and never hit this
error until updating from 10.3 --> 11.3. I also had to google for the answer.
