Hi all,

A couple new, private pkg repos are being tested using pkg.  First, after
configuring the new repos, `pkg update -f` and `pkg clean -a` were executed
followed by `pkg install bird bird6 net-snmp`.  pkg outputs schema errors,
but apparently did install the requested packages as well a upgraded
dependancies.  A transcript of this procedure is hosted at
http://hostileadmin.com/logs/pkg.log.

The first, and obvious, question is what is causing the schema errors?  pkg
update and pkg clean were executed after configuring the new repos in
response to a post located on -questions@[1], but as can be observed in the
aforementioned transcript, executing this prior to pkg install fails to
resolve the errors.

Observe also that pkg is upgraded, then downgraded, then upgraded again.
Is this the expected behavior or is it more likely that something else has
gone awry?  What possible circumstances would result in this behavior?
