Heads up! Some of your ports may erroneously be listed as depending on ports-mgmt/pkg

Hi,

The EOL for the old pkg_* tools is coming.

One thing to watch out for prior to running pkg2ng is the possible 
existence of /var/db/pkg/pkg-*/+REQUIRED_BY.

Simply delete this file and avoid the frustration I experienced 
earlier this week.

I wrote a few select words in my blog post, 
http://ximalas.info/2014/08/07/pkg2ng-some-notes-from-my-experience/. 
Maybe they're useful not only to me.
