System: NetBSD enigma 1.6_STABLE NetBSD 1.6_STABLE (ENIGMA) #3: Mon Jan 12 17:01:56 GMT 2004 gavan@enigma:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ENIGMA i386
	Running in a freshly created pkg_comp chroot.
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:

Using a system with installed pkg_* tools from a vintage before -K, it's no
longer possible to bootstrap pkg_install. Errors are thrown up straight away
about -K not being known.

>How-To-Repeat:

# Set up pkg_comp with sets from a release before -K
pkg_comp makeroot; pkg_comp chroot

cd /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install
make

>Fix:

No complete fix as yet.

Moving the PKG_INFO= line in pkgtools/pkg_install/Makefile to above the
inclusion of bsd.prefs.mk helps somewhat, but still throws up errors about
pkg_info -e requiring an argument.
