circular dependencies

[Ede Wolf <listac%nebelschwaden.de@localhost>]

Hello,

After having already successfully installed some packages on netbsd 
10RC1, I've decieded to change to:
PREFER_NATIVE=yes

because I did not want another openssl on my system.

So I've removed all packages, using pkg_delete -ff -A <names> and wanted 
to reinstall them.

Since then, however, I am unable to build a single package, always 
failing with:


# make install
=> Bootstrap dependency digest>=20211023: NOT found
=> Verifying reinstall for ../../pkgtools/digest
===> Installing dependencies for digest-20220214
=> Tool dependency mktools-[0-9]*: NOT found
=> Verifying reinstall for ../../pkgtools/mktools
===> Installing dependencies for mktools-20220614
=> Tool dependency mktools-[0-9]*: NOT found
=> Verifying reinstall for ../../pkgtools/mktools
ERROR: This package has set PKG_FAIL_REASON:
ERROR: Circular dependency detected
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1

Stop.
make[1]: stopped in /import/pkgsrc/pkgtools/digest
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /import/pkgsrc/sysutils/smartmontools
#

So I've done a bootstrap, though this should not be neccessary, and that 
even build fine, but still, any other package continues to fail to build 
with above error.

Anything I can do to revert back to the clean state comparable to 
straight after fresh netbsd install?

Deleting /usr/pkg/pkgdb/ after removing all packages does not help. But 
since it used to work before the pkg_delete, there must be some other 
information being stored elsewhere. I've also done a clean cvs checkout 
of pkgsrc, but that did not help either.

Thanks

Ede
