I like the idea of also providing a self-installing package, and it seems really easy to do, so I'll try to see what I can do in this area I'll wrote a PoC in 5 minutes which looks pretty good, this could also be a very simple and easy way to integrate into bsdinstaller. I'll do work in that direction. Still it doesn't solve the problem of boostrapping pkgng in a fresh new box, because the user may not know where to download the pkg-setup.sh. regards, Bapt
