Hey there all,

I'd like to start testing some of our nodes with pkgbase, but I'm not sure it's 
ready for prime time.  If I read this document correctly, the following are all 
still true?

 https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase

1) There's no way to do a from-scratch install using pkgbase.  The BSD 
installer still uses the old .txz distribution sets, and the only way to use 
pkgbase is to move from a from-source or from-cd installed system to pkgbase 
after the fact?

2) Pkgbase doesn't really understand etcupdate or anything like it.  So I'm 
forced to manually look for .pkgsave configuration files and adjust/merge them?

3) There's no setting to tell pkgbase to ignore certain files, correct?

Please let me know.

-Dan
