I am not sure if this is a bug in a) the package itself, b) pkg_add, or c) pkg_info. Normally when a package is installed, you will see something like this: procmail-3.22_2 A local mail delivery agent python-2.2.3 An interpreted object-oriented programming language qpopper-4.0.5_1 Berkeley POP 3 server (now maintained by Qualcomm) This bug causes the following to happen: procmail-3.22_2 A local mail delivery agent python-2.2.3 An interpreted object-oriented programming languageqpopper-4.0.5_1 Berkeley POP 3 server (now maintained by Qualcomm) This also applies to portinstall/portupgrade (when using -P). This is NOT specific to python. I can do this with a multitude of packages, they all do the same thing. Compiling from source (e.g. make install) does NOT do this. >How-To-Repeat: # pkg_add ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/lang/python-2.2.3.tgz Fetching ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/lang/python-2.2.3.tgz...
