            Bug ID: 193970
           Summary: building pkg causes warning about needing to install
                    pkg first
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Infrastructure
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: cperciva at FreeBSD.org

On a system with old-style packages installed:

# cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg && make install clean
You are about to convert your system to pkg while you have ports/packages
installed with the old pkg_install tools.

To switch to pkg:
    1) Install ports-mgmt/pkg
       cd ports-mgmt/pkg && make UPGRADEPKG=1 install clean
    2) Convert your package database by running pkg2ng

*** [pre-everything] Error code 1

This seems rather less than helpful.  Can we skip this error when we're trying
to build and install pkg itself?
