Just install ports-mgmt/pkg and follow the instructions. At the moment
the change is effectively to give you the new /var/db/pkg/local.sqlite
package DB without the rest of the ports functioning appreciably
differently.
Note: while there is an automated method for converting old pkg_tools ->
pkgng, there isn't an easy way to do the reverse. Take backups, don't
do this on any really important systems just yet, yadda yadda.
Cheers,
Matthew
