here we go again w/ pkg ....

[William A. Mahaffey III]

I am still having trouble getting pkgng to upgrade my system like I 
*think* it should based on the man page & prior list advice:


[root at kabini1, /etc, 4:10:36pm] 387 %  rm -f /var/db/pkg/repo-* 
/var/db/pkg/*.meta
[root at kabini1, /etc, 4:10:42pm] 388 %  pkg clean -a
pkg: Repository FreeBSD missing. 'pkg update' required
pkg: No package database installed.  Nothing to do!
[root at kabini1, /etc, 4:10:47pm] 389 %

in 1 window, then:


[root at kabini1, /etc, 4:07:24pm] 567 %  pkg update

So I removed all lingering meta data, updated that, checked for updates, 
it said there were some, tried to do the actual upgrade, & it says 
nothing to do .... I hope this is pilot error, but I am stumped .... 
*any* help appreciated ....
