Because I am an average user and I didn't know pkg is reading information from
different sources unless you configure it to not to. As I said, this is fixed
for me now because I deleted the whole ports tree, however I still think it's
confusing to the user. Do you expect them to know the inner workings of pkg and
read the whole documentation to be able to figure out how to execute 'pkg
version' when the index is corrupted? Not even mentioning the fact that pkg is
for binary package management and should not be tied up to ports sources?
