If I have portmanager, do I need portupgrade?

Ah...

# ls -ld /var/db/pkg/mail*
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  512 Feb 15 21:43 /var/db/pkg/mailman-2.1.5_2
# ls -l  /var/db/pkg/mailman-2.1.5_2
total 0
# pkg_info | grep mail
pkg_info: the package info for package 'mailman-2.1.5_2' is corrupt


I re-installed mailman and now portmanager is working.

Still... seems like it should not dump core on the
corrupt package info.

Thanks for your help.
