I have a few of questions: 1. Despite following the example +MANIFEST file given on the wiki I am getting the error pkg: Bad format in manifest for key: version I am invoking the command like this: pkg create -M ./+MANIFEST with the current working directory being the one containing the manifest and all the program scripts. the line in the manifest is as follows: version: 0.3 Any idea why it doesnt like this? 2. As my program is Python & shell scripts and is therefore platform independent can I use arch: all ? 3. When specifying a dependency package and its version, is the version taken as that version only or will it also be satisfied by a later version? According to the docs there is no way to specify one or the other. Many thanks Andrew
