According to the pkg-repo man page: ...only the most recent package for each origin is included in the catalogue. That sounded good, so I happily went along and updated my packages with portmaster -g, and then rebuilt the pkg-repo directly in /usr/ports/packages without removing the old versions of the packages. I did so for a while, at least five times. But this seems to not work properly. As a simple test I put three versions of the portmaster package in a directory and ran pkg repo: [bga@ivy /storage/bga/repotest]$ ls -l All total 160 drwxr-xr-x 2 bga bga 512 Nov 1 17:06 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 bga bga 512 Nov 1 17:06 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 bga bga 42688 Nov 1 17:04 portmaster-3.16.txz -rw-r--r-- 1 bga bga 42776 Nov 1 17:04 portmaster-3.17.1.txz -rw-r--r-- 1 bga bga 42768 Nov 1 17:04 portmaster-3.17.txz [bga@ivy /storage/bga/repotest]$ pkg repo .

Looking into the code a bit, there might be an issue with the return code from pkg_create_repo which might be EPKG_END, if the last package it tried was an old version. exec_repo in pkg/repo.c might need to check for EPKG_END too?
