            Bug ID: 284263
           Summary: ports-mgmt/pkg: [1.21.3] --raw-format is broken when
                    multiple packages are supplied
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: pkg@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: dch@freebsd.org
          Assignee: pkg@FreeBSD.org
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(pkg@FreeBSD.org)

pkg version: pkg-1.21.3, json_verify comes from devel/yajl

$ pkg info --raw --raw-format json pkg | json_verify
JSON is valid
$ pkg info --raw --raw-format json pkg bash | json_verify
parse error: trailing garbage
                                        {     "name": "pkg",     "orig
                     (right here) ------^
JSON is invalid


This is because `pkg info .. $THING` returns a JSON object,
but `pkg info .. $THING1 $THING2` returns 2 JSON objects:

```
...
}{
    "name": "bash",
    "origin": "shells/bash",
...
```

One possible solution is to wrap multiple packages in an array, and add
a , separator.

Also, --raw-format *requires* --raw, perhaps set --raw flag if --raw-format
is already found on command line.
