Default problems adding packages in 3.7

Hi Folks,
I'm getting errors about missing libraries while adding packages to a 3.7 system. This was a new install with 3.7 so there should not be any old stuff laying around....

-bash-3.00$ sudo pkg_add ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3....code-3.6p1.tgz
Can't install ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3....ode-3.6p1.tgz: lib not found intl.1.1
Even by looking in the dependency tree:
libiconv-1.9.2, gettext-0.10.40p2
Maybe it's in a dependent package, but not tagged with @lib ?
(check with pkg_info -K -L)
If you are still running 3.6 packages, update them.
-bash-3.00$ uname -a
OpenBSD matata.insec.auckland.ac.nz 3.7 GENERIC#50 i386

I understand that it can not find lib intl.1.1 and that it has looked for it in the package dependencies. However I don't understand what it is suggesting I do with pkg_info (yes I've read the man page).

A little more guidance would be appreciated.

Cheers, Russell
