Perl installation failed pfsense 2.1?

[diablo266]

I'm attempting to install vmware tools following this guide on pfsense 2.1 amd64: http://www.v-front.de/2013/06/how-to-install-or-update-vmware-tools.html

The pkg_add -rv perl command is failing with:

pkg_add: package 'perl-5.12.4_4' or its older version already installed
pkg_add: 1 package addition(s) failed

Perl does not seem to be installed, find / -iname "perl" shows no perl binaries anywhere on the system.

Thanks!

I was able to solve this by removing /var/db/pkg/perl-5.12.4 and then running the install again if anyone encounters this in the future.
