You've upgraded to pkg built on a newer FreeBSD 10.3, which is
incompatible with your 10.1, because the former has gone EOL
and pkg automatically adapts to the system it was built on.

Quick fix is to build pkg from the ports tree, then do:

# pkg lock pkg

to prevent further upgrade attempts of said package.  Similar
things can happen with other packages from now on, so you either

(a) build your own packages from a 10.1 system, or
(b) upgrade your system to 10.3.


Cheers,
