Description Jamie Jones 2009-10-13 19:50:01 UTC 
Since the switching of SourceForge ports to the new File Release System, this port has
been installing its pkginfo into /var/db/pkg/-mailx-12.4_1 instead of /var/db/pkg/heirloom-mailx-12.4_1

This caused pkgdb -F to go nuts, therefore this is relatively serious when port updating.

Probably needs revision bump to fix the problem for any users that have installed this port
since the update on 22 Aug 2009 01:28:34

However, if they HAVE, they will also need to manually do a rm -r /var/db/pkg/-mailx-* for things
to get back to normal, so maybe such information should be put into ports/UPDATING or maybe
added to the makefile itself (yuck) ?

Fix: make a note in /usr/ports/UPDATING to rm -rf /var/db/pkg/-mail-* or maybe temporarily
get the makefile to do it?

apply this patch to mail/heirloom-mailx/Makefile:
How-To-Repeat: 
Install /usr/ports/mail/heirloom-mailx

It will appear to install ok, and work ok, but pkgdb -F goes wonky.
Also, port will not deinstall, because of incorrect pkgname
