Is there a way to force install of a pkg w/o any of what it thinks are 
its dependencies ? See below:

i.e. it wanted to delete my linux-c6 compatibility pkg's & reinstall 
linux-f10. Flash (again, necessary 4 me :-/) doesn't work in Firefox w/o 
nspluginwrapper, & nspluginwrapper wants to munge up my linux 
compatibility libs. I 'pkg install'ed linux-c6-base, & the rest was 
installed by:


(cd /usr/ports/www/linux-c6-flashplugin11/ ; make clean install clean); cd .


Which worked AOK. What can I do to get pkg to install nspluginwrapper & 
leave my linux-c6 stuff alone ? Please advise & TIA ....
