The "point" of the whole pkgng system is to shift the update method from ports (portmaster/portupgrade) to update via binaries. This is because building binary packages, then updating the the whole system through the packages is healthier and less error-prone. So to answer your question: * If you DO NOT plan on building your own packages, should not have switched to pkgng. * Since you have switched, you can try to revert to legacy pkg or setup your package builder system using poudriere (enough examples in internetland for this) * Once you have poudriere building your packages, you can then make pkgng aware of the local repo by setting: PACKAGESITE=file:/poudriere/data/packages/10amd-default (or whatever your actual turns out to be) pkg upgrade should then run smoothly. -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/what-am-i-doing-wrong-tp5801766p5801788.html Sent from the freebsd-ports mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
