Installing pkg_install from port won't work unless you remove the =
original pkg_install that is in the source.

what I did was the following

1. I ran cvsup on stable-supfile (/usr/share/examples/cvsup/)
2.  cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_install
3.  make depend
4. make all install clean

and voila :-D


hope this helps anyone with this frustrating problem
