Hello, I just wanted to add to this thread that I incurred in the same issue on a fresh 6.6 installation. I also tried with a different mirror in /etc/installurl and receive the same partial response from pkg_info -Q. What makes it even more odd is that pkg_add finds the correct package.
Thanks Antonio for double-checking this! I have also tested it on a fresh installation at the time and got the same results. Maybe the behaviour is undefined if PKG_PATH is not set, which is fine by me. But still, it's quite puzzling and against the principle of least surprise.
