 I believe the difference is supposed to be that pkg_admin checks packages
 that have been installed, whereas lintpkgsrc -V is supposed to check binary
 package files (installed or not, but which could be installed) that have been
 compiled (or downloaded) sometime in the past.
 
 Whether it (linkpkgsrc -V) works or not, or is useful to anyone or not
 I couldn't say (I prefer to keep all my compiled binpkgs, vulnerable or not.)
