I believe maybe this went by a couple of months back, but...

Whenever I CVSup 2.2-STABLE, a file (/var/db/pgk/.mkversion) gets
installed on my machine.  This, in turn, causes pkg_info to
complain:

    chad> pkg_info -Ia > /dev/null
    pkg_info: can't change directory to '/var/db/pkg/.mkversion'!

I looked at the pkg_info code; it expects every entry in /var/db/pkg to
be a directory.  My fix has been to delete the file.  What's the
"official" fix?
