>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
        [...]
