The pkg_delete(8) man page could be helpful.

If there is a decision involved, this might help direct a solution:
Code:
     -i              Switch on interactive mode.  pkg_delete may ask questions
                     to the user if faced with difficult decisions.
If that fails, this should produce more detail about the problem:
Code:
     -v              Turn on verbose output.  Several -v turn on more verbose
                     output.  By default, pkg_delete is almost completely
                     silent, but it reacts to keyboard status requests (see
                     stty(1)).  -v turns on basic messages, -vv adds relevant
                     system operations, -vvv shows most internal computations
                     apart from individual file/directory additions, and
                     -vvvvv shows everything.
