--- Comment #2 from freebsd at dreamchaser.org ---
I am reopening this because:

pkg help info shows:
       pkg info [-AbBDdefIklOpqRrs] [-Cgix] pkg-name

That means one should be able to give:
  pkg info -q bash
or 
  pkg info -q bash-4.4.23_1

Neither of which works.

While one can clearly do
  pkg info -q | grep bash
to get the desired result, either the pkg command is not working as documented
and needs fixing, or the documentation needs to be fixed to reflect how the
command actually works.
