Hi,

pkgutil was placed straight at the mirror root a while ago to facilitate downloading, but it doesn't seem to get updates. The version floating around [1,2] is 1.5, most recent pkgutil is 1.7. Could this please be
fixed (and be kept in sync in the future pleeeaase :).
....

I see, the package contains a wget which is platform specific. Couldn't
we just include two wgets (wget.i386, wget.sparc)?

for the record, that's exactly we provide "two wgets" binaries, in the
mirror root itself, directly.
Kinda silly to include yet another wget binary wrapped in a package at
that level, isnt it?

As a user, i never cared about those wgets in particular. What i cared
about and still do care about is a working and easily distributable
package utility.

I am in favor of making an exception here for ARCHALL too. If it helps
making the user experience easier wgets should be included, for pkg-get
and pkgutil.


Best regards
