pkgsrc question

Based on what i've been reading i should be able to create a binary
package of something after its installed, however if i do 'bmake
package' after i already did 'bmake install' it fails with errors, and
the only way to fix this is to 'pkg_delete <package>' and then do
'bmake package'(which not only creates the binary package but installs
as well and will fail to create the binary package if it cannot
install). Is this normal, the documentation I look at for netbsd
seems to suggest that i can cd into a package dir, then do this:
bmake
bmake install
bmake package
however on dfly that same sequence results in breakage, heres some
example output:
prometheus# cd /usr/pkgsrc/misc/screen
prometheus# bmake install
LOTS OF OUTPUT SCREEN INSTALLS WORKS FINE then:
prometheus# bmake package
