see the sequence of commands
pkg info -qr db6
results....
redland-1.0.17_3
serf-1.3.6_1
subversion-1.8.9_7
apr-1.5.1.1.5.3_3
squidGuard-1.4_9
cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.26_1
evolution-data-server-2.32.1_11
bogofilter-1.2.4_2
=============================
Now the command....
pkg install -fR db6
Updating repository catalogue
DIST64 repository is up-to-date
All repositories are up-to-date
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
The following 1 packages will be affected (of 1037 checked):
Installed packages to be REINSTALLED:
db6-6.1.19 (forced reinstall)
===========================
look that it will reinstall db6 (which is correct)
but not will reinstall the other packages as the manual says so...
Another missing thing is that pkg upgrade
will not reinstall the packages that changed options or
that changed direct dependencies (as pkg 1.2.X did)...
Is it normal or a bug??
