Well, I dunno about that being "should be ok" :-} that might be a "feature" ;-)
[to guard against broken catalogs/packages]


That being said, I already have longer term plans to implement better
handling of this sort of thing, by directly supporting dual-site in
pkg-get.
Unfortunately that is MAJOR work for pkg-get, and I did not have time
during my updates last weekend. it will have to wait until I have
another free weekend, to implement it.

(odd though.. i thought pkg-get used to be a bit more forgiving about
this sort of thing from testing)
