May be related to an installed GForce 970 is detected and the install script attempts to install the Nvidia blob. Leaves a mess behind.

What detects it?  AFAIK there is no magic in pkg or FreeBSD that
automatically installs one of the nvidia-driver packages.

I cannot reproduce this now.  xorg-minimal doesn't depend on
linux_base-c6, so it shouldn't pull it in.

I'm closing this, but if it's still a problem please reopen it.  More
information might also be helpful like the full list of packages that
pkg wants to install.
