Stephen - I did a clean install of 2008.05 rc2a with no problems. Following your instructions, I wanted to see if my Companion CD repository would work with the package manager. I did
pfexec pkg set-authority -O http://pkg.sunfreeware.com:9000 sunfreeware.com pfexec pkg refresh both as root. Then I started the package manager program and the above repository was found and the packages appear under the All category correctly. I tried some individual package installs and they do install in /opt/sfw as they should and dependencies are found. I did note two problems which I am not sure are with my repository or the package manager. If, for example, I try to do an install of the IPSFWcddk - which has a number of dependencies - the download eventually freezes. 26828 KB is supposed to be downloaded, but it stops at 7892 and stays there. I also tried to select all the packages and install them all at once, but that froze also. If this is a problem with my repository or packages, I would like to fix them. If not, maybe this is some other issue. Very nice tool though. Looking forward to using it and building packages for it.
