            Bug ID: 273472
           Summary: ports-mgmt/pkg: running `pkg upgrade -` freezes pkg
                    from continuing, because of a missing char used for an
                    option by accident
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

Here is how it happened:

root@freebsd [~] # pkg upgrade -
Updating Local repository catalogue...
Fetching meta.conf: 100%    163 B   0.2kB/s    00:01    
Fetching packagesite.pkg: 100%  343 KiB 351.1kB/s    00:01

Local repository update completed. 1700 packages processed.
All repositories are up to date.
^C
root@freebsd [~] # pkg: archive_read_open_filename(-): Error reading stdin
pkg: No packages available to upgrade matching '-' have been found in the
repositories


I had to hit ctrl-c to get out of it, which shows pkg was confused that "-" was
a package name by that error message.


root@freebsd [~] # pkg --version

root@freebsd [~] # echo $SHELL
/usr/local/bin/zsh
