In setting up multiple chroot areas (or the like) it would be handy to be able to download just once and reuse the downloads while setting up the various chroots --instead of hitting the FreeBSD server with repeated downloads, for example. The example context was setting up armv7 chroot areas on a aarch64 system. I worked from inside each chroot area to convert it to pkgbase. For what I was doing, some of the pkgbase packages are not needed ( FreeBSD-src* and FreeBSD-kernel-generic* ). So only downloading the ones used (as seen in the net result) could be part of this. (The "net result" note is because of not being able to indicate skipping a few: deleted later instead.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.comhelp
