[ANNOUNCEMENT] pkg 1.3.0 out!

[Loïc Blot]

Hi,
Great work @pkg-devs !


Tested on ~30 servers with different roles (mail, web, services...) and
different FreeBSD versions (9.1,9.2,9.3,10.0) and no warning problem
noticed (each servers needed ~30 package updates). Only a little problem
with roundcube (pkg wants to remove it, but i upgraded all other
packages before and the problem disappear).
