I suspect that there is a lot of missing metadata after pkg2ng because
it was never there in the old package format, and you' can't just fake
the data because it's only there if you install into the STAGE directory
and pkg can do all its accounting before making the final package.

I would hazard a guess that "Installed packages" can probably be fixed,
but "Disk space occupied" probably cannot.

This seems odd. What version of pkgng ?
