This is truly bizarre.  569 is my uid, and the owner of the files in
the ports tree on the package building machine.

Jordan, any idea how this could happen?  bsd.port.mk gives the file to
pkg_create with -r, just like all other files.  I don't understand why
only +REQUIRE retains the ownership.

 * Hi, I an running FreeBSD 3.2 on an i386 platform.  I cvsup'ed the ports
 * collection and find myself needing to update a few files in my source
 * tree.  I grabbed the file 32upgrade.tgz off of the FreeBSD Web site
 * and attempted to run pkg_add ./32upgrade.tgz.  The pkg_add failed with
 * the message:
 * ./+REQUIRE: permission denied
 * pkg_add: package /root/pkg/32upgrade.tgz fails requirements - not installed
 * 
 * Upon inspection I find that the file +REQUIRE in the 32upgrade.tgz package
 * has different ownership than the other files:
 * 
 * -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel      71 Apr 22 02:59 +COMMENT
 * -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     186 Apr 22 02:59 +CONTENTS
 * -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     151 Apr 22 02:59 +DESC
 * -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     102 Apr 22 02:59 +INSTALL
 * -rw-r--r--  1 569   569       135 May 20  1999 +REQUIRE
 * drwxr-xr-x  4 root  wheel     512 Apr 28 12:24 usr/
 * 
 * Perhaps someone could take a couple of minutes and rebuild the 32upgrade.tgz
 * file with the perms changed?
 * 
 * Thanx.
