Thanks to everyone involved.

I've been lightly testing pkg for a little while, but I still mainly use =
ports. This announcement prompted me to switch from portupgrade to =
portupgrade-devel (20120827 version) to see how it works with PKGNG. I =
encountered a couple issues:

Portupgrade doesn't remove the pkgdb.db.lock reliably.
Portupgrade doesn't handle stale lock files (just waits indefinitely for =
a nonexistent process to finish). A big problem when combined with the =
above.
Running "portupgrade pkg" failed. It stalled trying to unregister the =
package installation after the old pkg was removed. I didn't dig too =
deeply but it seems like a dependency chicken-and-egg problem.

I was able to reinstall using /usr/sbin/pkg, and I also tested "make && =
make deinstall && make reinstall" of ports-mgmt/pkg successfully, so it =
may just be a portupgrade issue.
