I'm not sure when it happened, I think since latest pkgng upgrade,
version 1.1.3, but pkgng now acts differently in at least two cases.
1. pkg upgrade -f
What happens:
-----------------
/root # pkg upgrade -f
Updating repository catalogue
New version of pkg detected; it needs to be installed first.
After this upgrade it is recommended that you do a full upgrade using:
'pkg upgrade'
Uprgades have been requested for the following 1 packages:
Reinstalling pkg-1.1.3_1
0 B to be downloaded
Proceed with upgrading packages [y/N]: n
-----------------
What I expected to happen (man page quote):
-f Force reinstalling/upgrading the whole set of packages
Problem:
Not sure how to upgrade everything now.
2. pkg version
What happens:
-----
/root # pkg version -vRL=
Updating repository catalogue
/root #
-----
What I expected to happen:
-----
/root # pkg version -vRL=
/root #
-----
Problem:
I have this in crontab:
pkg update -q && pkg version -vRL=
Previously I would get no email unless updates are needed. Now I get
emails about updating catalogue repository. Passing -q to 'pkg version'
doesn't suppress the message either. I'm not sure what -q would
suppress, but I don't think I want it, I was fine with the way it was
before. I can 'grep -v' that line out, but I assume that's not the
intended behavior, is it?
