Actually, pkg(8) being a dependency of something else is OK. It's
pkg(8) itself that should not have any dependencies.

net-snmpd uses pkg(8) to extract the list of installed packages.
To the OP: just having pkg(8) installed out of ports and sitting on your
drive will not hurt you. You have to start running it before anything
(nice or nasty) would happen.
If you don't want to switch to pkgng just yet, then don't run pkg2ng.
Similarly don't add 'WITH_PKGNG=3Dyes' to /etc/make.conf (if you're going=
to be compiling your own ports using portmaster(8) or otherwise) and
don't use pkg(8) to install any packages. Everything that is pkgng
aware should be using somewhat more sophisticated tests than just 'is
/usr/local/sbin/pkg installed' to determine if the system is pkgng-ified
or not.
Cheers,
Matthew
