To upgrade the package tools I'd recommend running:

  "pkg_add -U pkgin pkg_install".

as older versions of pkgin didn't correctly support selected upgrades.

In your output pkgin-23.8.1nb3 is shown as an upgrade, so it's likely 
the "pkgin install" you ran didn't work, and you are running an older 
version of pkgin that didn't calculate dependencies correctly.

If you upgrade pkgin first, the output should be better.  If not it'll 
be a bug that I'd be happy to look at!
