Hi Sascha,

Sorry cannot be helpful.  dfly uses the same 'pkg' as freebsd, so I can only
suggest you do  some more search about 'pkg' and 'freebsd'.

One more thing: check the filesystem and/or hard disk for any errors.  Maybe
the filesystem is corrupted or the hard disk has bad tracks.  Just my guess.
