On some systems, every time I try to install a package pkg(8) spends five minutes at "Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...". This sounds like the kind of thing that ought to happen infrequently, say once per week. But instead it happens on every single invocation. I've seen it on TrueOS Edge, 11.0-RELEASE, and 11.1-RELEASE, but not every system. Does anybody know what's going on? -Alan
