In that download directory there is a file called pkg_summary.gz. It can
be used to know the names of the packages needed and they can be
downloaded without using possibly broken pkg_add.
Any tools use pkg_summary??
Also, some packages are missing, probably due to licensing issues or
security vulnerabilities.
If you notice that some package available has a dependency missing due to
licensing issue, let us know.
If you notice a package missing due to a security issue, we should upload
a replacement (if available).
Do we have any scripts on the download server to check and report what is
missing?
