There are two likely causes of this:

 * You're running an older version of pkg_install prior to 20200701.
 * 'make replace' doesn't call pkg_admin rebuild-tree.

For the 20200701 pkg_install release I made a number of changes to fix 
+REQUIRED_BY generation, and in pkgin I ensured that rebuild-tree is 
called after any pkgdb changes:

  https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/commit/185902296ec91fc88287c8c47d47a56304e9dc2d
  https://github.com/NetBSDfr/pkgin/commit/7b8477561e49a2f174f6f4b37928b4e5d1da2f14

You should be able to fix it by manually running "pkg_admin 
rebuild-tree", but it would be good if someone can ensure that the 
replace target does this automatically (I never use it, sorry).
