I'm a UNIX veteran but a FreeBSD newbie. I'm having problems creating my first trivial test package. Please see the typescript below. I've tried this on 2.2.6, 3.4, and 4.2 with the same results. Basically I'm trying to build a package that installs dummy-file in /tmp/local/bin. I thought the pkg_create -p switch would set the path for the -c, -d, and -f args but that doesn't seem to work. When I cd to the package directory and do the pkg_create there, I get a tar error even though I can manually tar the file. Any help would be most appreciated.
