I would say yes, and then all the tools should agree on the pkgdb.

Start looking at the pkgdb, both of them.  Learn what normal packages
look like.  If there is a dir with no control files, just remove it.

Same problem as above.

probably not, except that updating the base system to 9.2 is probably a
good idea.  But with the PKG_DBDIR lines it should be ok.


So you need to dig in and see what is in both databases, and probably
you can move the dirs from /var/db/pkg to /usr/pkg/pkgdb or the other
way around (either is ok, but you must have 1 and you must have all 3
configs pointing to the chosen one.  I prefer /usr/pkg/pkgdb at this
point.)   This is sort of a manual merge process.

Then the script should fix up the embeedded paths.  Read and understand
the script - I tried to comment it well.
