Sounds like a good idea to handle ports seperately, because with every new
version of
pkg more bugs are introduced.
With 2.6.x I have to run pkg -N as root now though the database is readable for
everyone.
Otherwise it reports, pkg: package database non-existent.
Maybe just a stupid idea, but how about simply use an older version of pkg to
fix that?
I have not updated pkg on many machines since 2.4.x was released and on all of
those
I still get usable output. Or add -ports option or something like that, that
behaves
correctly for ports.
