By adding this, it will be convenient for administrator. Especially, when
there is some packages were added by "pkgadd", but there is no index for
these packages in /var/pkg, and most of important the administrator know
what he needs to do and what he is doing. It will be easy to only add one
single package, otherwise, it will be time consuming to add them all.
Anyway,
it brings flexible works.


Thanks
Jason
