this will be fixed by https://reviews.freebsd.org/D52564, which causes makewhatis(8) to be run when new packages are installed. this requires the pkg(8) PR https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/pull/2516, which allows pkg to search for triggers in /usr/share/pkg and not just /usr/local/share/pkg. i hope to land both of these changes for 15.0-RELEASE.
