<bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to pkg at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 199296: ports-mgmt/pkg: should disable "old" periodic scripts
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199296



--- Description ---
pkg (install script or pkg2ng or 1st run) should disable the old periodic
scripts in /etc/periodic/* e.g. by deleting them or chmod'ing the executable
bit.  One gets junk mails about old packages otherwise after switching to
pkgng.	At least please include a hint in the pkg's message.
