Hi,

I did a fresh install of 10-STABLE on a new system.

I set up the new xorg repository as outlined here:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2014-July/001570.html

When I tried to install a bunch of packages,
I got this conflict:

pkg-static: pkg-1.4.0.p.a11 conflicts with pkg-1.3.7 (installs files
into the same place).
 Problematic file: /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/_pkg.bash

The full log of what I typed is here:
https://people.freebsd.org/~rodrigc/pkg-1.3.7-pkg-1.40.conflict.txt

What is the best way to solve this?

In future, how do we deal with the case where someone sets up
multiple package repositories, but one repo has a dependency
on a different version of pkg?
