I tried to perform the split migration according to the cited mail http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2020/12/30/msg032987.html I got some warnings and I don't think it went totally well: localhost# pkg_admin check .........................................................pkg_admin: can't open /usr/pkg/pkgdb/dirs/+CONTENTS: No such file or directory localhost# pkg_admin rebuild-tree pkg_admin: Cannot read +CONTENTS of package dirs I fear this "dirs" come from this step: In /var/db/pkg.refcount tar cf - . | (cd /usr/pkg/pkgdb && tar xfv -) since pkg.refcount contained "dirs" ls /usr/pkg/pkgdb/dirs/ etc usr var is it out of place?
