pkg issue broke upgrade and all "Cannot read +CONTENTS of package "

Hi,

I am unable to complete pkg upgrade and am left with half-working packages.

Cannot read +CONTENTS of package GConf-3.2.3nb18

# pkgin upgrade
pkg_info: cannot read meta data file +CONTENTS of package 
GConf-3.2.3nb18: No such file or directory
pkgin: Dependency perl>=5.38.0<5.39.0 of p5-Email-Valid-1.204 unresolved

pkgin: Cannot read +CONTENTS of package GConf-3.2.3nb18

fine I thought, let's try some pkg maintenance:
pkg_admin rebuild
pkg_admin: GConf-3.2.3nb18: can't open `+CONTENTS'

well.. how can I fix this? GConf is not istalled, so I cannot forcibly 
remove it. Where is the issue. In the pkg information of the available 
database or in my local installed database? Since even pkgin list or 
pkg_info fail, I suppose it is local

pkg_admin check
................................................................................................................................................................................................pkg_admin: 
can't open /usr/pkg/pkgdb/GConf-3.2.3nb18/+CONTENTS: No such file or 
directory

# ls /usr/pkg/pkgdb/GConf-3.2.3nb18/
gio-querymodules.core

I suppose gio-querymodules crashed and left a core file there in my 
pkgdb! What is this program?


Should I just nuke /usr/pkg/pkgdb/GConf-3.2.3nb18/ and rebuild and see 
if upgrade then completes?
