This warning is there to let you know that install/deinstall scripts are about
to be run -- and that the scripts *may* fail, due to local modifications you
may have made after your previous install.  The warning describes the
script(s) so that you may then make a go/no-go decision.

You may eliminate the question by issuing pkg_add with "-F update" if you
wish.  That is a quite common usage.
