} martin@ just pointed out to me that I had overlooked
} /var/db/pkg.refcount (to path to which defaults to
} ${PKG_DBDIR}.refcount, so it also moved).
} 
} So the complete instructions as of now are:
} 
} cd /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install
} make USE_CWRAPPERS=no install
} cd /usr/pkg/sbin && install -c pkg_add pkg_admin pkg_create pkg_delete pkg_info /usr/sbin/
} mv /var/db/pkg /usr/pkg/pkgdb
} mv /var/db/pkg.refcount /usr/pkg/pkgdb.refcount

     Are there instructions on changes needed to pbulk setups?
