Difference between pkg 1.5.2 and 1.5.4

[Eggert, Lars]

Hi,

I'm netbooting with a read-only rootfs. Up until version 1.5.2 of pkg, that sometimes caused some errors when installing various packages, but the install continued even if some files couldn't be written.

That seems to have changed with 1.5.4. Specifically, upgrading ca_root_nss from 3.19 to 3.19.1_1 now aborts in archive_read_extract () as shown below.

This regression makes it difficult to run read-only; any chance this abort can be turned into a warning instead?
