Now that portmaster officially supports pkgng I've converted to using

that matters.

There is no particularly good reason to keep pkg_tools around once
you've made the switch to pkgng.  pkgng should provide replacements for
all the pkg_tool functionality and slot into its place quite smoothly.

However, I'm not sure that there's been adequate testing on a
pkg_tools-free setup, so it is not entirely outside the bounds of
possibility that you might run into some odd problems.  If you do,
please report what happens, as that's definitely a bug that needs fixing.

Will do. Thanks to all who worked on pkgng.
