In particular, it seems that pkg performs the chroot before it does any network lookups.  This is a problem if the chroot is not a complete system environment (which it cannot be when you're building an image for another system).

As people might only follow this thread and not the ticket here is what I
answered:

pkg supports an option for that which is pkg -o NAMESERVER= to avoid having to
copy resolv.conf it was broken in 1.8 but I fixed it in pkg 1.8.0 which has been
released today.

the problem with pkg -c is that it calls chroot very early. To avoid that
problem we have added pkg -r which does not perform any chroot at all therefore
having not network issue, but the ports tree are is not yet entirely aware of it
and some scripts (preinstall/postinstall) might cause some issues.
at least creating users from the script is safe in that regard. for most simple
case that should work.


Best regards,
Bapt
