>Description:
        I'm using pkgin with a nfs-(auto)mounted (in the LAN) pkg repository.
pkgin has learned to symlink files to the cache, instead of copying them.
Unfortunately, it seems to add the file sizes and refuse to try if /var/db/cache
can't hold the *copied* files.

>How-To-Repeat:
        pkgin up ; pkgin fug
