OK,

I've now put the crack pipe down.  Please allow me to rephrase my
questions.

And, in point of fact:

cwr@achilles#pkg_info -a | grep -i pkg_install
pkg_install-20050318 Package management and administration tools
for pkgsrc

and also in the chroot:

pkg_comp:default.conf# pkg_info -a | grep -i pkg_install
pkg_install-20050318 Package management and administration tools for pkgsrc

Now, if I'm understanding things correctly, it's trying to build
pkg_install at makeroot time presumably because the pkg_install
that gets installed in the chroot from the 2.0.2 sets is older
thank the one installed from pkg_src on the running system.

So, I guess the first outstanding question remains as to whether
the failure to chdir to /var/db/pkg for the creation of
pkg_install is a problem.  Is anyone else seeing this?  Any ideas
on how to track down the source of the problem?

The second question is, is there (should there be?) a way to let
it know that pkg_install on the installed system is current?

Thanks,
Chris
