You installed using an earlier profile, obviously, when devfs was the default |
| 8 |
for virtual/dev-manager (otherwise you wouldn't have it installed). |

Because the profile depends on a virtual any attempt to remove a package |
| 10 |
providing that virtual will throw up the warning. |

Exactly the same symptom you're seeing with editors on -user. |
