I did those things as matter of course. It think its a directory at |
| 26 |
/var/db/pkg/sus-libs/ that is empty that is causing the grief. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
It also appears to have a funky name from some kind of error |
| 29 |
somewhere. |

|
| 31 |
/var/db/pkg/sys-libs/-MERGING-pam-0.99.8.1-r1 |

If I knew anything about python I might try fixing it since a well |
| 34 |
written script ought not to cave on an empty directory. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
But since I don't I just moved the directory. :) |
