in light of this I find it more and more surpirsing how /var/pkg keeps

interface to cleanup this bit ? and what on earth is in it ? the entire

repository ? if yes, why can't we install zones local from it rather

it has grown from 2,7 GB in build 157 upto nearly _9_ GB on build 167 !
Read pkg(1). There is a property there named
'flush-content-cache-on-success' that you may set to True.
Before FCS, we hope to implement additional pruning algorithms that
cause the client to more intelligently manage cached package content
found in /var/pkg/publisher.
The rest of the directories contain necessary metadata for the operation
of pkg and there are no plans to shrink them.
