>Description:
Problem 1:
"pkg_add foo" does not try foo.tbz foo.tgz or foo.tar in the current directory.
(It does try the suffixes when searching PKG_PATH.)  Workaround: supply
the complete filename on the command line.

Problem 2:
"pkg_add foo" searches PKG_PATH for foo, but if foo depends on bar,
pkg_add only searches the 1st component of PKG_PATH for bar.

Problem 3:
pkg_add searches ../All/  but this is not documented in the man page,
and there should probably be a way to turn it off if desired.

>How-To-Repeat:
Set PKG_PATH so that a dependency is in the 2nd or later component.
Run pkg_add under truss and watch it not search 2nd or later components
for the dependency.
