I am reading pkg_info(1), I see that pkg_info can be executed without any options/arguments, but the man page doesn't tell what happens in this case. In practice I see that configure.kde3 executes pkg_info in the above fashion (after printing "Looking for installed modules.") and what I observe is that pkg_info is examining all package files found in /var/packages. This takes quite long, obviously: 0 61827 28318 0 8 0 5992 2892 wait S+J p5 0:00.12 /usr/sbin/pkg_info 0 62162 61827 0 8 0 3492 1108 wait S+J p5 0:00.00 sh -c /usr/bin/tar -xp -j -f '/var/packages/All/curl-7.18.0.tbz' '+*' I am not sure if this is default behavior of pkg_info or it is somehow affected by environment. I run portupgrade -p and also have PACKAGES set to /var/packages. -- Andriy Gapon
