By design, the pkg.depotd server creates a repository where it is told
to if one does not exist already.
The pkg/server SMF service is dependent on filesystem-local, and will
not start until it does (assuming SMF handles the dependencies as
expected).
I'm now confused as you originally asked if the depot was starting
before filesystem-local.
Yes, as I believed it was a matter of one boot sequence. I suppose
the dependency works fine, as you pointed out in the first reply.
So basically pkg.depotd is not prepared to be run on filesystems
that are not connected on every boot?
Not designed to; no.
The alternative here is to require the user to manually create the
repository first using "pkgsend create-repository" and never have the
depot process automatically create one.
But I don't know if that is desirable.
