added or upgraded ..? are you sure you arent't in the following
scenario:

1) tigervnc depends on graphics/png (direct dependency)
2) you did "pkg upgrade tigervnc"
3) there was an upgrade for graphics/png too, with a shared library bump
4) pkg upgraded tigervnc, png, and other dependencies

AFAIK pkg doesn't handle this scenario properly as reverse dependencies
of graphics/png aren't upgraded at the same time... and you end up with
a semi-"broken" system :(

I hope this will be fixed in a close future as this is pretty annoying
and limiting
