12.3-RC1 fails to install pkg
Not sure if this is intended or not - it certainly wasn't the case with 12.2, and it likely will break a few automated deploys: # ls -la pkg* -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4011616 Nov 17 17:52 pkg-1.17.2.pkg # pkg add /tmp/vb/pkg-1.17.2.pkg < /dev/null The package management tool is not yet installed on your system. Please set ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES=yes environment variable [etc.etc.] Okay, lets try that one: # pkg add -y /tmp/vb/pkg-1.17.2.pkg < /dev/null Bootstrapping pkg from https://oper-e.intra.daemon.contact/sysimg/ports/conr/Cur, please wait... pkg: Error fetching https://oper-e.intra.daemon.contact/sysimg/ports/conr/Cur/Latest/pkg.txz: Not Found A pre-built version of pkg could not be found for your system. Consider changing PACKAGESITE or installing it from ports: 'ports-mgmt/pkg'. Not good. Not at all. But then: # pwd /tmp/vb # pkg add pkg-1.17.2.pkg < /dev/null Installing pkg-1.17.2... Extracting pkg-1.17.2: 100% So, it *can* still do it. It just does no longer accept an (absolute or relative) pathname. And I have no idea what that might be good for. Any clues, anybody? cheerio, PMc

> Can you try this? > # pkg add -y file:///tmp/vb/pkg-1.17.2.pkg Hi Glen, tried, doesn't help. I found the cause in the meantime, it's #370420 It states: * Chop off the final "-" (version delimiter) and check the name that * precedes it. If we didn't have a version delimiter, it must be the * pkg.$archive short form but we'll check it anyways. What they apparently did forget is to also chop off the leading path name up to and including an '/'. So it is not intentional, it is just the normal first try of an improvement where you always forget something. cheerio, PMc
