Please ignore my testing. It was invalid and did not have the correct configuration. Sorry. I did not set 'path = ' in my jail - I think it was using the host. The above mentioned commands all attempt to install pkg when run in a properly configured jail. root@empty_tester:/ # hostname empty_tester.int.unixathome.org root@empty_tester:/ # pkg info -l The package management tool is not yet installed on your system. Do you want to fetch and install it now? [y/N]: n root@empty_tester:/ # pkg config ABI The package management tool is not yet installed on your system. Do you want to fetch and install it now?

Yes, I think it is, based on my testing so far. -- Dan Langille dan@langille.org
