The only thing i compiled from source was mail/maildrop with the mysql flavor
(mysql client+server already installed). and i could swear i did not mess
anything else, considering compiling from ports is messing...

anyway, this *did* work so thank you.

Hello,

I'm trying to install IMP on an OpenBSD i386 3.8, and I'd like
to do it using the packages.
When running something like :
pkg_add ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.8/packages/i386/imp-h3-4.0.2.tgz
I get :
Collision: the following files already exist
/usr/local/include/ltdl.h (different md5)
/usr/local/lib/libltdl.a (different md5)
/usr/local/lib/libltdl.la (different md5)
/usr/sbin/pkg_add: fatal issues in installing libltdl-1.5.18

So I tried to launch :
pkg_add -F conflicts,installed,boguslibs -q libltdl-1.5.18.tgz
but this does not help.
Questions :
- These files don't seem to come out of any package. Do they?
(pkg_info -E seems to agree)
- Can I brutely overwrite these files, hoping their new versions
won't do no harm?
Seriously, may you give me any advice?

Looks like, at some point, you either compiled something from source or
messed up the package database.

As mentioned, removing them and proceeding with the install should yield
useful packages. It may break whatever you had installed, though... (if
it's a different version, for instance).

Indeed, they do not seem to come from any package, since pkg_add just tells
you they have a different md5. Either you installed stuff by hand, or
something went very wrong on your machine.

Considering they're just an include file and a static library, removing
those files and proceeding with the install should work...
