In the end it was nothing untoward, just a package newly embarnacled with dependencies, just as I thought in the beginning. That package is duckdb. If needed I'll build it from source. Perhaps the more interesting point for this thread is that these 2 commands seem to in fact be equivalent: - pkg upgrade - pkg upgrade -g '*' Reading the manpage I see how I got the idea for the latter, as it explicitly says nothing new will be installed, even with -g, unless forced by dependencies; but it never seems to specify what should happen with the former.
