I agree that's a serious bug/regression in the pkg database: With the
old pkg system, I could tell when a port was installed by looking at
the timestamps on the +COMMENT file. The install time is needed to
answer questions like "does this entry in UPDATING affect me" (ie have
I rebuilt the port since the entry date). It's something I used
regularly and its absence is a PITA.
I shouldn't need to rummage through /var/log/messages - and in any case,
by default FreeBSD only keeps 500K of messages history (about a month
in my case) so the information has probably rotated into the bit bucket.
I agree that having a pkg audit trail would be useful. Unfortunately,
what we have today is not an audit trail and isn't especially useful.
