+  Pkg has been updated to 1.3.7. This fixes registration and tracking of
+  shared libraries. All earlier versions of Pkg incorrectly marked some
+  shared libraries and used the wrong name for some.
+
+  Please note announcement for special instructions at:
+    http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-announce/2014-August/000086.html
+
+  - Users need to run 'pkg check -Ba' after upgrading to pkg-1.3.7 and before
+    updating any other packages. This avoids needing to reinstall anything
+    not needed due to changed shlibs.
+  - People building packages for serving to other systems need to rebuild
+    all packages with 1.3.7.
