I've examined your theory and it turns out that you are (mostly) right
about the problem. The message is caused by the use of "perllink"
in "deinstall.tmpl" where "PKG_PREFIX" is not defined. It is probably
worthwhile fixing that.

The problem doesn't affect "install.tmpl" because "pkg_add" sets
the variable in that case.

        Kind regards
