archivers/xz is mark IGNORE because xz is now in the base system (8.2)
Numerous other ports won't build because they believe they depend on xz (or
on a port that depends on xz)
I'd like to remove the dependencies on xz from the pkgs database.
pkgdb -s /xz-5.0.0// won't work as the slash notation might suggest it would
because -s does not accept a 'empty argument'
I am afraid to remove the xz package because it seems to me it would delete
the base system xz -- and I don't want to make world if I can avoid it.
Is there some sensible way to do this?
