This means that people who do not want to use pkgng should add WITHOUT_PKGNG=1 to /etc/make.conf (as opposed to: people who do want to use pkgng should add WITH_PKGNG=1). Yet, there are still a few ports that use ".if defined(WITH_PKGNG)" checks in the relevant Makefile; for example, if the system uses pkgng (pkg2ng has been run, or vice versa), then the ports-mgmt/pkg_cutleaves port will not work (the program will not find any packages installed) unless WITH_PKGNG=1 is specified. It is time to change this behavior, ie., the Makefiles in each port directory should be altered to use ".if defined(WITHOUT_PKGNG)" or similar checks. >How-To-Repeat: 1. Use pkgng. 2. Remove the WITH_PKGNG=1 setting from /etc/make.conf, if present. 3. Build and (re)install ports-mgmt/pkg_cutleaves. 4. Run pkg_cutleaves; notice that the program doesn't find any ports installed. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
