that it is easy to overide methods you don't like. Without to much patching
I have nanobsd working on zfs with pkgng.

If you use the official pkgng repo it is almost trivial:

define cust_pkg() in your config file, something like

cust_pkg() {
    pkg -c ${NANO_WORLDDIR} install $packages
    pkg -c ${NANO_WORLDDIR} clean
}

You might also have to temporarily place a working resolv.conf in
${NANO_WORLDDIR}/etc

If you have your own repo just add
export PACKAGESITE="proto://path/to/repo"
to the config file as well.

Given that thats all it takes, why wait for an "official" fix?

Best regards
Andreas
