Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-pkg mailing list
<pkg at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 233836: ports-mgmt/pkg : If both -A and -v are passed to 'pkg set', some
packages may be skipped.
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233836



--- Description ---
When 'pkg set' is run with both the -A (automatic) and -v (vital) options, some
packages that should be changed may be skipped.  It appears that any package
that the '-A' options does not affect (i.e., the automatic setting was already
correct) will also not be changed by the '-v' setting, even if it does not
currently match the requested setting.
