It was in the "pkg" I got this morning, which reminded me of this sad workflow.

I installed the port.  I don't know how often the packages are updated.

I switched a 9.2 system over to pkg a couple of days ago, and did what the 
Handbook says--really, just install pkg and run pkg2ng--and did not see those 
messages.


You might have this backwards. I'm pretty sure that the handbook shows the old 
configuration information, and the Wiki shows the new.

I don't understand how. The Handbook mentions pkg.conf but does not show any entries for it, while the wiki shows a sample file. Again, I believe the file changed, and it was the presence of the obsolete version that caused the messages. The current port only installs pkg.conf.sample.

Maybe it would help to be more specific: what needs to be changed in the Handbook version? Without pkg.conf, the current version of pkg does not complain, so that seems okay.
