freebsd stable - Jun 2007 - Have some troubles after deleting group of packages...

Recently I've deleted some packages on my server, those packages was
installed on It at 21.06.07(DATE) by mistake. What to learn exactly which
packages was installed on system, I used command "ls -la /var/db/pkg|grep
"Jun 21" ". After it I've deleted those packages by
"pkg_delete" command. Firstly it seemed all OK, but later I have
collided with such problems:

$ sudo tcpdump
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /lib/libpcap.so.4: Shared object has no run-time symbol
table

I was trying to rebuild gmake, libpcap, tcpdump but it has not lid to positive
results...
Except for that, when I was trying to build hping, I've got such error:

$ cd /usr/ports/net/hping
$ sudo make install clean
===> Building for hping-2.0.0r3,1
.....random.o scan.o hstring.o libars.a -lpcap
/usr/lib/libpcap.so: file not recognized: Memory exhausted
gmake: *** [hping2] ?????? 1
*** Error code 2 

$ uname -a
FreeBSD fambox.ru 6.2-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5 #0: Fri Jun  8 11:00:49
MSD 2007     root@fambox.ru:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ITHOST-p5  i386

P.S.
I am very sorry for my cRoOKeD English.

Best Regards,
Roman

I'm afraid that was a mistake.  When you install a package,
sometimes new files are written to thesubdirectories of
other packages in order to record dependencies.  The time
of those directories are also updated.  If you deleted them
all, then you probably deleted too many.

To fix that, review the list of deleted packages (if you
don't remember it, then try to look for the pkg_delete
commands in your shell's history).  Install any that might
be still needed.

That's strange, because /lib/libpcap.so.4 is part of the
FreeBSD base system.  It doesn't come from any package.

It seems that something else was also broken inadvertently,
apart from the package deletions.  What time stamp does
that library have?  You might have to reinstall that file
from installation media (CD, FTP server or similar).  Or,
if you have the system sources installed, you can rebuild
and install that library in /usr/src/lib/libpcap:

# cd /usr/src/lib/libpcap
# make clean depend all install

That's probably caused by the same thing.

You're perfectly comprehendible.  I think your English is
not worse than mine.  :-)
