Interrupted 'pkg update' problem

[Marko Turk]

Hi,

if pkg update is interrupted (with e.g. ctrl+c) while pkg is processing
entries, the pkg DB is not complete and pkg install will fail to find
some packages. Pkg does not check if DB update was interrupted.

Would it be possible to add some check and restart the update if it was
interrupted?

Example output:

root at projects:~ # pkg install cmus
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
The following 3 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):

New packages to be INSTALLED:
        cmus: 2.6.0_2
        flac: 1.3.1
        libmad: 0.15.1b_6

The process will require 3 MiB more space.
643 KiB to be downloaded.

Proceed with this action? [y/N]: n
