Since pkg is being replaced by pkgng in Release 10.0 I would like to get

Where can I find a write up about installing and using pkgng?
Have all the pkg packages been converted to pkgng format and are they
being kept up to date?
Hi
It's in /usr/ports/UPDATING
20121015:
AFFECTS: users of ports-mgmt/portmaster
AUTHOR: bdrew...@freebsd.org
Portmaster now supports pkgng. To use pkgng, enable the patch in the port,
enable pkgng in your make.conf, and convert your existing /var/db/pkg
database. Also see UPDATING entry 20121010 if you are on a recent CURRENT
and do not want to use pkg.
This is optional and not currently required.
# make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg install clean
# make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster config build deinstall install
clean
# echo 'WITH_PKGNG=yes' >> /etc/make.conf
# pkg2ng
Thanks, but your reply does not answer my question. I did not say
anything about using portmaster.
I want to use pkgng in native mode.
I don't see pkgng in the ports system.
How do I get pkgng loaded to a 9.0 system?
