Hi there, as far as i understood /var/db/pkg should be empty, after an fresh update to stable 10 and # pkg delete -a -f WITH_PKGNG=yes is set in /etc/make.conf the next inquiry of pkg asks for the installation of pkg. everything fine so far. now i would going to use the freshly updated ports tree to reinstall all packages starting with portmaster. the call up of # make config shows only a message like options changed, but no dialog. thanks google i could figure out to install dialog4 ports first, then i got this working again. for my opinion: it should get installed automatically or the dialog from the system should get used or at least iot should printout a hint or error message. installing portmaster now and inquire an portmaster `cat installed-ports-list` like in the man page of portmaster recommended, i get the /var/db/pkg filled again. beside the local.sqlite db from pkng. for the fun, some packages didn'r installed files in /var/db/pkg. it are exactly 4 packages difference, any relation to MAKEARGS=-j4 ? Any ideas how to get rid of this behaviour? many thanks
