New Revision: 45559
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/45559

Log:
  Replace all occurances of 'pkgng' with 'pkg' in the handbook
  Kept existing xml:id's to avoid breaking external links to the documentation
  Sanitized the documentation of references to pkg_add
  Fix an incorrect variable name: daily_backup_pkgng_enable should be daily_backup_pkgdb_enable
  Fix a linebreak in the middle of a variable name
  Clarify that pkg2ng is not a required step on newer systems
