Howdy, I apologize if this a goofy question, but I've been installing
new ports (like bash2 for example) via the /usr/ports tree and I notice
that after they are installed that I can see them with pkg_info.  Is
this merely a convenience, or did the port build process actually
install a package?  

Thanks,
