I got my monthly report and noticed that a number of ports were corrupt.pkg_info: the package info for package 'OpenSP-1.5.2_2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'apache22-2.2.27_2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'autoconf-2.69' is corrupt My ports are fine according to %pkg info. Why is bsdstats still using the old ports utilities? Is it going to be updated?
pkg support was added to the FreeBSD BSDstats port in 2012: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/sysutils/bsdstats/files/300.statistics.in?r1=300897&r2=301654&pathrev=301654 If the file /var/db/pkg/local.sqlite exists on your system, BSDstats should try to use pkg as expected. Checking for this file was the method recommended in 2012 by the pkgng IRC channel, but I'm not sure if this method has since been replaced by something else. The "LEGACY" section was intended for backward compatibility with pkg_* tools. Given that there are still two supported FreeBSD releases (8.4-RELEASE and 9.3-RELEASE) that come with pkg_* tools, I think the "LEGACY" section should remain until support ends for both of these releases. -- A.J.
