https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=262337 --- Comment #2 from Torsten Zuehlsdorff <tz@freebsd.org> --- I am closing this bug as resolved by the reporter. The reporter discovered that periodic's 411.pkg-backup produces a different format than `pkg backup -d`, and the correct restore procedure is `xzcat /var/backup/pkg.sql.xz | pkg shell`. This was a misunderstanding of the backup formats, not a bug. No documentation patch was provided, and there has been no activity since March 2022. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
