>Description:
Using the -n (noclobber option) pkg_create gives an error on 7.1-RELEASE-p4. After looking at the source of pkg_create, I found that the option 'n' is not coded as an option in the source. The noclobber mode '-n' is mentioned in the manual page source and it is also displayed as an option in the pkg_create usage help.
>How-To-Repeat:
chroot# mkdir /usr/ports/packages/All
chroot# cd /usr/ports/packages/All
chroot# pkg_info | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -n1 pkg_create -Rvnb
>Fix:
Do not use the -n option

chroot# mkdir /usr/ports/packages/All
chroot# cd /usr/ports/packages/All
chroot# pkg_info | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -n1 pkg_create -Rvb

It will rewrite some dependencies multiple times.
