When I try to use pkg_fetch, It gives me an error saying "PKGNG support is needed". I don't understand why it tries to use PKGNG. If I'm on a outdated fresh install of FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE and I've installed sysutils/portupgrade from ftp-archive.freebsd.org with pkg_add, shouldn't pkg_fetch just work as it used to do before the implementation of the new package management program?
Is there a way of fixing pkg_fetch so it just fetches the old tbz packages from ftp-archive.freebsd.org?
Code:
$ pkg_fetch -fRv http://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-9.1-release/Latest/xine.tbz
