For anyone with backslashed +COMMENT files in /var/db/pkg, the
following script can be used to clean them up. You could also wait
until 5.1-RELEASE comes out, I suppose.
#!/bin/tcsh
cd /var/db/pkg
foreach dir (`/bin/ls|/usr/bin/grep -v pkgdb.db`)
echo $dir; cd $dir; /bin/ls -l +COMMENT
Instead of simple text lines, pkg_info is returning what looks like
escaped words after clean install of 5.1-BETA2:
pkg_info|more
