Hi!
Has anybody else seen a problem with the bootstrap and update of the "pkg" package? I run the bootstrap script and at the end it prompts to check for an updated version of the "pkg" package. If I say yes there are a number of problems with dependencies. One in particular is with the sort-1.1-bin package. It appears to be missing a file named: /var/db/pkg/sort-1.1-bin/+REQUIRED_BY. The solution I have used is to run the bootstrap script and answer "N" to the update "pkg" prompt. Then manually add the sort package; touch the +REQUIRED_BY file and chmod 664 the file. Any other ideas or suggestions on this? Can someone check the sort-1.1-bin package to see if there is some problem in creating this file or if it is just missing.
Thanks!
Dave Venus

One other person reported similar to this a few weeks back.
The bootstrap script has been available for months though.
Anyway, from that we worked out that everything was actually fine on
the machine and updated correctly. So that message can be ignored
safely. I'll see about recreating it here.
