pkg wants to install packages it just autoremoved (and vice versa)

[Eitan Adler]

Hello Eitan,

ping?

Can anyone explain why pkg wants to both install and autoremove the
same packages?

When I had similar, it was because I tried to use both FreeBSD repo and
my own repo. Then a installed package from my local repo had a more
recent version on FreeBSD repo, so the dependencies changed. I ended
up with machines that only use FreeBSD or only use local repo and have
not seen this happen since.

I have the same setup but would like to understand *why* this is
happening. Shouldn't the poudriere package "win" if configured with
higher priority ?
