Re: Broken vim



I think this means your pkgdb is corrupt, not that the package is
broken... try running pkg_admin rebuild-tree (and probably also
pkg_admin rebuild)

would be nice to find out why this happens sometimes, of course...

Yes, it'd be nice to figure out how and why this happens on dozens of machines each and every time vim gets updated... And pkg_admin rebuild, and rebuild-tree, don't fix the problem. pkg_delete gives vim-share-8.whatever is still required by other packages errors, where whatever is the old version of vim-share which has already been replaced. An -f needs to be added.

I'll check it out the next time vim gets updated BEFORE running pkg_rolling-replace on dozens of machines.
