The FreeBSD packaging system binaries (and manuals) are being moved
out of /usr/sbin and into /usr/freebsd_pkg/sbin. People who still
need to use the FreeBSD packaging system will have to add
/usr/freebsd_pkg/sbin to their path. The binaries will be left there
through the Christmas release to provide a migration path, but will be
removed in HEAD after the release is rolled.
The NetBSD pkgsrc bootstrap will be integrated into the ISO for the
Christmas release. People building ISOs will have to have a pkgsrc
tree broken out. I haven't determined how much of it will be needed,
but certainly at least /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap will be required.
The related commits for both these items are going in today.
