>Description:
${MAKE} index will create an INDEX file with all packages from pkgsrc,
with information about dependencies, path, etc. But still there are
known problems:
o The INDEX file is overwritten when "make index" or
"make search key" runs again.
o If the INDEX file has not been completed totally, and the
db creation process is stopped when it's running, the work
will be done from scratch again.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd pkgsrc && make index
make search key=foo
[...]
>Fix:
Please, fix me!
