The most obvious is the pkg-plist which lists a directory, and not the files contained within. As a result, the package is empty. When it's added to a repo by pkg, the error "../crack-5.0.txz is not a valid package, no +MANIFEST found" shows. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Looking at the makefile, this thing is a mess. It's not just a problem of the plist, the way it's installed is strange too. I suggest porting the pkgsrc version of it: https://github.com/jsonn/pkgsrc/tree/trunk/security/crack >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
