What is the status of pkgng. The handbook says to use it but else were it
says that the repos are empty due to a security incident last November.

Are there beta repos hidden somewhere that can be used? The reason I ask is
I want to install packages like Gimp and LibreOffice which will take a
fortnight on my laptop to compile. I tried pkg_add but that broke
everything when I updated to 9.2.

Thanks,
Ethan House
