Setting up a new server tonight, decided to do it up with pkgng from the start: 1. portsnapped a tree 2. installed pkg just fine from ports 3. added WITH_PKGNG=yes to /etc/make.conf 4. cp /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf.sample /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf Then it broke: # pkg update Updating repository catalogue pkg: http://pkg.freebsd.org/freebsd:9:x86:64/latest/repo.txz: No address record Reading the pkgng page on the wiki: "As a consequence of the security incident on 11th November 2012, for the time being pre-compiled packages for pkgng are not available from any official FreeBSD repository. [...] Target dates for when service may be resumed have not been released." Is that still the case? Is pkgng presently a non-starter?
