It will complain in this manner if PACKAGESITE is defined in the
environment.

Yes, the message should be clearer about what exactly is wrong and what
to do about it.

So you mean you've already got a repository.conf file?  I which case the
error message is really inappropriate.  All I can say is that the
message dates from when the switch from pkg.conf to the
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/ directory was first introduced and assumes you
have an old style setup which needs to be updated.

PACKAGESITE support in pkg.conf has been dropped entirely in 1.3 which
is in alpha at the moment.  I need to double check, but that should mean
those error messages will go away too.

	Cheers,
