            Bug ID: 290807
           Summary: ports-mgmt/pkg 2.3.1 -> 2.4.1 regression/annoyance
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: pkg@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bsd@dino.sk
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(pkg@FreeBSD.org)
          Assignee: pkg@FreeBSD.org

New pkg-2.4.1 changed behavior when invoked with 'check -s -a' arguments. In
2.3.1 version, visible end result was like

# pkg check -s -a
Checking all packages: 100%
#

Version 2.4.1 shows

# pkg check -s -a
Checking all packages:   0%
Checking all packages:   0%
Checking all packages:   0%
Checking all packages:   1%
...
Checking all packages:  98%
Checking all packages:  98%
Checking all packages:  98%
Checking all packages:  99%
Checking all packages:  99%
Checking all packages: 100%
#

(probably one line per package installed).

This change is not observed when invoked with 'check -d -a' arguments.

While this could be considered just cosmetics, it is highly undesirable when
hundreds of packages are installed on one system.
