Greetings,
I was in the process of updating one of my development boxes
that runs -CURRENT. It's lagging a bit behind. So it required
a fresh, new "world". World built as expected. But the kernel
failed due to pkg(8). This box has an Nvidia video card. So
src.conf(5) has [among other ports entries]
PORTS_MODULES=x11/nvidia-driver-304
the [kernel] build failed due to pkg(8)
===> Ports module x11/nvidia-driver-304 (all)

Do I need to have FreeBSD-12 && ports/head from 12 installed *prior*
to building (upgrading)?!?
This feels like a chicken-v-egg thing. Is it possible to *remove*
pkg(8) && any dependency on it. Is this a bug in pkg(8) or just
a bug in my head?
Please help. As most of you already know; building/installing
world/kernel is a fairly time consuming process.
Thanks!
