[Bug 284054] ports-mgmt/pkg: Does not recognize .pkg as a valid suffix (triggered by portupgrade)

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=284054

--- Comment #19 from Terry Kennedy <terry-freebsd@glaver.org> ---
(In reply to Ed Maste from comment #16)
This doesn't seem to correct the "If an invalid or no format is specified txz
is assumed." part of the manpage, if the info in comment 12 is correct and the
default format is now tzst.

Also, I don't think the "in the near future" deprecation notice in the handbook
is reasonable. Unless there's some plan to remove portsmgmt/portupgrade from
the ports tree, it is going to remain in quarterly builds for some time. db5
has been hanging around in the ports tree long past its sell-by date.

  I suggest two things:

1) Adding DEPRECATED= and EXPIRATION_DATE= to the port Makefile (the date
should be at FreeBSD 14 EOL, IMHO).

2) Adding a section in the Handbook on "Migrating from portupgrade to
portmaster"
