Yes, quite so (pkg check -s -v enchant).

So based on that output you provided, it seems the package expected the missing
files.  So either:

 (1) the files were not in the package you installed from

 (2) the files got removed somehow after the package was installed

 (3) the package install was interrupted (disk full issue perhaps??)

Generally, pkg(8) won't build a package incorrectly, so it's probably (2) or
(3).  If so, you have to figure out how that happened.  You could look at
modification times of directories to see when a file may have been deleted (if
it hasn't been touched since then).  Or other sleuthing (think about changes
that have occurred since the package was installed - note that the date for a
pkg install will usually be logged in /var/log/messages, also 'pkg info
enchant').

Do you still have the package from your poudriere build?  You can inspect it
with 'pkg info -R'.  You could reinstall from that package.  That would
probably fix your problem but won't necessarily tell you when / why things went
bad after that.

If the package is correct (which it seems to be since it is complaining about
the missing files), then build logs won't help, as the removal of the files 
probably occurred after the build / install.
