(In reply to Dag-Erling Smørgrav from comment #3)

It looks to me like the man page for pkgbase makes no
mention of the concept of vital packages, much less
describe what you supply here: That they are intended
to be the packages that would, on removal, immediately
render the system unrepairable.

It would be good if the documentation was explicit
about that.
