So it appears that pkg does not recognize the fact that version
0.5.11-2018.0.0.0:20190623T223519Z is newer than version
0.5.11-0.151100:20160727T071237Z -- correct?

I don't think that you are supposed to be able to remove the package
altogether.  You should, hovewer, be able to update it.

Do you also have an "entire" package?  If so, what version does it
have?
