If you install back it might work. But I have find that pkg for 9.1 is out. you can try pkg_add or the bxpkg.

I'm on a fresh installation of GhostBSD (gnome). I have installed both ports and source kernel tree with tar. Following the portupgrade steps I get this error:

Just a thought.. Im far from an expert with Ghost or any other BSD for that matter. But sometimes the answer can be something easy to overlook. A recent example I experienced was while installing programs from the App Cafe of PCBSD on a laptop hooked to DSL. Several times during the the download/install process of programs the DSL would cut out momentarily and I would receive a "fail" message. No biggy, I would just go back afterwards and reinstall the ones that failed right? Except, several failed I never received notification of. More importantly though, the icons were created and the App Cafe showed them as "installed". Long story even longer, I manually removed them and reinstalled them one at a time. Like I said, just a thought...

Apparently Skype is only in ports. I have no idea why it fail on you.
But porinstall -rc skype should only touch Skype dependency.
