I personally have already updated 10 or so boxes with a wide range of
packages to pkg 1.4 and apart from a change with the handling of pkg
upgrade -f <pkg>, which was an intended fix, I didn't have any
problems.
So not sure what your "show stopper" is or what you think could be
tested more thoroughly (don't forget the call for testing did go out
the other week, so looks like there was quite a bit of opportunity to
get involved.

Reverted to pkg, by build, and FORCE PKG REGISTER.
pkgs still cannot be installed.
Still stuck with ports ( however portupgrade -- non-packages -- seems
to be
working with this pkg << pkg-devel downgrade )
(/ portmaster? == no, cannot get
handle, lock on database) only.
..............###########...............##################...........
Should pkg and/or pkg-devel be more thoroughly tested before
release into the tree? No other pkg usually hints at similar pkg
system(s) breakage without a proven recovery/rollback procedure
already documented... similar to what portupgrade does with its
saving of shared libraries prior to upgrade of a port.

Bringing the list back into this, as its not my area:
pkg install wants to install extra ports and abort traps
You'll want to post details about, OS version, pkg version, and the
exact error with any stack trace
pkg add a "pkg fetched" file, cannot install it by package, wrong
architecture
(freebsd >> FreeBSD or vice versa, setting somewhere, etc)
This doesn't make any sense to me, to others it may do but, always
best to include proper steps and the output of the commands so people
know exactly what your doing and the issue your seeing.
portupgrade works on some ports still, but machine > machine broken
because of pkg issues
and portupgrade -P broken similarly
portmaster cannot install, convoluted error (lock on database and/or
already installed error(s))
So the /var/db/pkg build machine functionality also the portmaster -P
portupgrade -P
are broken. Here. Maybe these could be tested on all architectures
before each new package
upgrade? Another layer of machines, so to speak, "just because NOT "
Again you don't provide any real details of the issues, you might of
well have said "its broken"
of SQlite.. ... one
used to not have to post to the list or even subscribe to have reliable
LAN build set.
I just updated 195471 bugzilla with a two week update. Fixed
(temporarily?) the wrong
architecture error with a missing pkg.conf file or reversion of one of
them which was not
missing, and have a workaround for the errors that remain, but it is
tedious and
worrisome, to say the least. Compared to how it could be with more SQL
coders on
board... maybe.
Cant say I've ever had any issues, its always just worked, so worth
posting your customizations.
Made a post in a thread on the forums with the same information as the
update in
the PR above.
For what it is worth...
Just read the digest of Freebsd-STABLE that arrived today, others are also
disillusioned with the priority given to pkg(ng) fixes for what was
once a not-exact but
very reliable packaging system across releases.
Thanks for forwarding to the list. Unsure with each email sent
precisely the number of
recipients, but the fewer, the more likelihood the sometimes "could not
be sent" appears...
Mostly wishing for a procedure to fix it before needing to upgrade to
v10 !! Never had to
reinstall since v5.0x AFAIK...
Copying to the list again.
You might want to see if you have a reply to list or reply to all option
in your mail client there Jeffrey, as I said this not my area but the
pkgng are very good, so given the right information I'm sure someone
will be able to help.
Regards
Steve
