PKGNG and ports management

I

IT-Doody

I've been reading a bit about the migration to pkgng, but I still have lingering anxiety regarding its ability to work with current ports management tools, since portupgrade and portmaster currently invoke pkg_delete during upgrades. Could someone reassure me that I won't cripple my ability to build ports by converting to pkg?
 
Re: pkgng & ports management

Both tools will use the equivalent pkg(8) subcommands to add/delete/etc. packages when used with the new PKGNG system. All you have to do is to add WITH_PKGNG=1 to /etc/make.conf and the tools will then know that PKGNG packaging tools should be used.
