database information stays out of sync about pkgin

[iMilnb]

I suspect this is linked to the bug Greg pointed out regarding bad behaviour when using both pkg_install and pkgin. I commited a fix last night for that one, could you give it a try?

Thanks

I tried reproducing, but fail earlier:

This occurs because pkgin can't find pkg_{add|delete|info} in /usr/local which is pkgin's default LOCALBASE when not installed from pkgsrc. You can modify:

PKGTOOLS?=      ${LOCALBASE}/sbin

In pkgin's Makefile so it points to pkg_install location.
Additionnaly, if that makes sense, I can add a --pkginstall-prefix modifier to the configure script.

Thanks for the pointer. I've manually changed PKGTOOLS in Makefile. Since there's a configure script anyway, perhaps it can guess a few locations?

As to the problem reported here: I couldn't reproduce the issue any longer. I hope it's gone :)

Thanks!

FWIW I've just added a --with-pkginstall parameter to the configure script :)
