I'm having quite a lot of trouble converting to pkg due to there being no obvious source of accurate documentation. I got this after I thought I had it solved and could install something: 11:36 Fri, 10 Oct [momcat:root]~> pkg install firefox Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue... pkg: Repository FreeBSD has a wrong packagesite, need to re-create database Fetching meta.txz: 100% 968 B 1.0k/s 00:01 pkg: Error loading trusted certificates pkg: repository FreeBSD has no meta file, using default settings Fetching digests.txz: 100% 2 MB 119.8k/s 00:17 pkg: Error loading trusted certificates pkg: Unable to update repository FreeBSD All repositories are up-to-date. pkg: Repository FreeBSD has a wrong packagesite, need to re-create database pkg: Repository FreeBSD cannot be opened. 'pkg update' required Updating database digests format: 100% pkg: No packages available to install matching 'firefox' have been found in the repositories Just for the record, could someone knowledgeable please post the real, current list of required config files and their contents OR a pointer to known-good+complete documentation? Thanks!
