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, Hubert Feyrer, Thorsten Frueauf, Rene Hexel,
Christian E. Hopps, Thomas Klausner, Johnny Lam, and Matthias Scheler.

When making snapshots, please modify PKGTOOLS_VERSION in lib/version.h
to that day's date.

src/usr.sbin/pkg_install is the canonical location for these sources.
Any changes should be made here first, then merged over to pkgsrc.
