This I don't understand, how can a pkgdb -F restore a package which
you have deleted ? From the man page of pkgdb, -F seems only to 
"resolve stale dependencies, unlink cyclic dependencies, complete stale or 
missing origins and remove duplicates."

Isn't there a way to find in the ports collection an older version of 
a package somewhere ??
