System: NetBSD bondage 1.5 NetBSD 1.5 (GENERIC) #10: Wed Nov 22 03:00:56 PST 2000 root@frau-farbissina.shagadelic.org:/amd/swinger/u1/netbsd-1-5/src/sys/arch/alpha/compile/GENERIC alpha
>Description:
bondage 130 # sh
# if `pkg_info -qe pkgdb.byfile.db`; then echo yes; fi
yes
# pkg_info -e pkgdb.byfile.db
pkgdb.byfile.db
# pkg_info pkgdb.byfile.db
pkg_info: can't find package `pkgdb.byfile.db' installed or in a file!
so pkg_info halfway thinks pkgdb.byfile.db is a package.
>How-To-Repeat:
pkg_info -e pkgdb.byfile.db
pkg_info pkgdb.byfile.db
>Fix:
none yet (note to self, don't forget to fix this).
