>Description:
When building jails like discribed in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/jails-application.html any port will fail to install or update because pkg_create dosn't look in the correct staging folder. As /usr/local is a symlink to /s/usr-local, pkg_create wants something like ..../../staging/../usr-local/... wich, of course, doesn't exist.

This problem will affect any system with a linked /usr/local
>How-To-Repeat:
Build or update a port in an enviroment with a linked /usr/local
>Fix:
None exept avoid symlinked /usr/local (like mount via nullfs)
