vi complained that a file was "already locked, session is read-only". I found a stale process running vi and I killed it and all was well.

Noticed that libgcrypt was updated and so some packaged previously built had open-ended dependencies on it. But the so version changed, so old packages installed with new libgcrypt are broken. I bumped version for opencdk. But I did not do gnutls because it had been updated since then. Another problem is evolution and libsoup and possibly several others as shown with "cd pkgsrc ; make show-deps PKG=libgcrypt" (need an index file first).

I didn't fix these because this libgcrypt update was in April and now it has been several weeks. So might as well accept it was broken and move along. For the future we need to make sure the versions are increased for anything depending on a library that has a changed major version.

Also worked on my custom pkg_install that has an upgrade-in-place option.
