--- Comment #2 from Baptiste Daroussin <bapt at FreeBSD.org> ---
Oups sorry I missed that one.

Yes it is known, it is a choice since day one because too many scripts where
failing. The level of failures here has reduced a lot so it maybe time to
revisit it.

Second pkg installation is not supporting a "rollback" if package fails in post
installation then you are left the new binaries but the package is not
registered as such.

The plan is the following:
- improve the transactional nature of pkg installation process (working on it
right now)
- apply a patch like yours to make sure things fails.

For the first point I just need 2 days of free time, so that should now happen
soon!
