Timing out ftp connections: Make sure the hanging pipeline gets a ^C (SIGINT), and wait until the ftp prompt is available again. Else we may nuke away tar's working dir, and it may be displeased. 2. One of the commands from the pipeline exiting: caught via SIGCHLD; for this signal to be delivered, a empty handler is needed) Adresses PR 10925 by Greg A.

# Original from FreeBSD, no rcs id.

This is the pkg_install suite of tools for doing maintainance of
software "packages".  More documentation is available in the man pages
for each individual command.

This code was written by Jordan Hubbard for FreeBSD, snatched and
mildly reshaped by John Kohl in NetBSD and the changes taken back into
FreeBSD again by Jordan, who then proceeded to add another couple
of dozen features on top.  Whee! :-)

In another round of enhancements, NetBSD changes were added by
Alistair Crooks and Hubert Feyrer, Thorsten Frueauf and Christian E.
Hopps.
