Note the order that the different versions of xorg-server are returned in
the search above. If you ran "pkg install", it would pick the first one in
that list, which is NOT the "new" Xorg version. After reading and re-reading
the pkg.conf(5) man page, I finally figured out what pkg was doing (I have
pkg-1.3.5.1 installed) when it comes to the order in which the defined repos
are searched, and have a repo configuration that appears to work:
In /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos, add a file FreeBSD.conf with the following contents
to tell pkg not to search the main FreeBSD repo first when looking for things:
FreeBSD: {
enabled: no
}
Then paste the contents of /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf at the end of the
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD_new_xorg.conf file, with the result being:
FreeBSD_new_xorg: {
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/new_xorg",
mirror_type: "srv",
signature_type: "fingerprints",
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
enabled: yes
}
FreeBSD: {
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest",
mirror_type: "srv",
signature_type: "fingerprints",
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
enabled: yes
}
"pkg update -f" to rebuild the local catalogs, and
root@jmobile:/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos # pkg search xorg-server
xorg-server-1.12.4_8,1
xorg-server-1.7.7_13,1
This makes the new_xorg repo the first one to search, and even gets the correct
versions of the other bits of new_xorg (dri, etc.).
I'm only seeing one oddity (and others have reported this, too): for some reason,
the latest "pkg upgrade" wants to install i386-wine-devel along with the other
upgrades needed.
