>Description:
pkg_info normally searches /var/db/pkg, but if PKG_PATH is set (ie to /usr/ports/packages/All), all tarred (bzip'ped) packages get unpacked to obtain version info. Installed package-info also gets displayed, but not installed packages not (but they seem to be unpacked though).	
>How-To-Repeat:
run pkg_info. See the speed
Make sure packages (preferably some large ones) exist in /usr/ports/packages/All, i.e. using pkg_tarup on X and moving the .tgz's to /All)
export PKG_PATH=/usr/ports/packages/All
run pkg_info. It's slow.
>Fix:
Dunno, didn't look into it since it's low priority and maybe on purpose. Should be documented though.
