There's nothing in pkg_tools to stop it working on a pkgng-enabled system. This does not mean that installing pkg_tools packages in that situation is in any way supported or encouraged. If you do this, you will create a mess on your systems and store up a nasty job of sorting it all out for yourself. It really isn't a good idea. I know there is a lack of availability of official pre-compiled packages from the FreeBSD project at the moment. This is an unfortunate consequence of the security problem in November, and all I can do is ask for your patience as the situation gets sorted out. In the mean time, the best advice is to compile your own. Either directly from ports, by using portmaster or portupgrade or else by using an off-line package building system like poudriere or tinderbox[*]. Cheers, Matthew [*] You need tinderbox-devel for pkgng support, or the upcoming 4.0.0 release. --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
