Doesn't seem so in this case:

pkg: Repository FreeBSD has a wrong packagesite, need to re-create database
pkg: Repository FreeBSD cannot be opened. 'pkg update' required
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'misc/gnomehier' have been
found in the repositories

That said, no port actually needs gnomehier. Nothing will fail to run as no
shareable libs are involved.

I suspect a bit of DB hacking could fix hte issue without actually
re-installing anything.
