Check your PATH environment variable if it contains /usr/pkg/bin. If it
doesn't, use your shell's startup file to add to it. If it is in the path,
some shells are hashing the commands and their locations, that means that
the directories are not searched everytime you type something, but only
once on startup - or when you force it. The command for shells which are
hashing commands to force them checking again is "rehash". So after you
installed something, "rehash" and the command should be found (if /usr/pkg/bin
is in your path!)
