Well, in my first mail I started here; I have the full list of packages
already built on the staging server. I moved them over to the production
server, removed all old ports, and tried to install all of them with
this : pkg_add *.tgz . But pkg_add refuses to proceed, complaining
"pkg_add: too many packages (max 200)". I have over 400. If I choose a
smaller subset with for instance pkg_add [a-f]*.tgz I get dependency
problems, +REQUIRED files that are not there yet etc.

Perhaps I should up the hardcoded 200 to 500 in pkg_add and retry ?
