Hi Bapt,

Thanks for this update.
Since I use pkg base with 14.0 on a bunch of systems in production would
you know if there are any plans to backport the patches to 14.0?
As a hack I am downgrading pkg manually on my system before building the
packages for now, this seems not-ideal.

I am trying to backport this into a patch that I can apply on 14.0 until
14.1 is available.
Can you tell me if these commits are a good starting point?

Thanks for the help,
Reshad
