Recent versions of pkg(8) (older than 1.4.12) contain a bug that could cause a suppression of pkg itself during an upgrade or a package installation.
If this happened, you end up without pkg(8) on your system. Here is a simple solution to fix that: # cd /usr && make pkg-bootstrap This will download and install the most recent version of pkg (1.4.12) which contains a fix to this problem. You may want to check that this actually worked by running: % pkg -v which should output '1.4.12' (or newer). Robin
