Try reinstalling and never using swaret?

try reinstalling the packages using something like

Code:

upgradepkg --install-new --reinstall pkgname.tgz

then uninstall them

and be careful when using package managers, as gnashley says

Tuche'... I always laugh when I see these kind of posts. One can only hope that leasons are learned from expierences like this. pkgtool is such a great package manager. It's a shame people don't use it more....
