I have never used pkg_admin's "set" and "unset" before.

Where can I find a list of all the choices?

And how I can list the current settings?

For some tests, I did:

$ sudo pkg_admin set junk=YES zlib-1.2.3

$ pkg_info -B zlib
...
Installed information:
junk=YES


$ pkg_info -Q junk zlib
YES

Maybe the pkg_admin man page can mention to use pkg_info for this? (Did I 
do this correctly.)
