Description
Rather than tag onto #1705 I choose to report my experience using pkg separately.
I find pkg regularly wants to remove unrelated packages.
This would be the reason I will never trust the base system install to pkg, having it choose to remove the base system will make the system completely unusable.
I have just upgraded from 14-stable to 15-stable, after install world I ran pkg-static install -f pkg and it wanted to remove 24 packages.
The following 25 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):
Installed packages to be REINSTALLED:

I kill that and run pkg upgrade and get

then kill that and run pkg install xorg and get

I ended up force installing everything using cat /root/tmplist | xargs pkg install -f with tmplist being a file of port origins that were previously installed and successfully packaged in my poudriere.
