So, it appears that: touch /usr/pkgsrc/makefile pkg_chk -P ftp://binary/url -abg (generate pkg_chk.conf if nonexistent) pkg_chk -P ftp://binary/url -abf (fetch all needed packages) pkg_chk -P //wherever/previous/step/put/binaries -abu (upgrade) will upgrade everything with binary packages previously downloaded? This would be very handy, as it would (mostly) remove 2 of the big problems with pkg_chk - downtime while new versions are installed, and packages failing to build.
