In an off-list exchange with gdt@ on this, he suggested posting some
additional info here.  So here's a synopsis along with listings of what's
left behind by replace.


I'm still seeing one problem with '(b)make replace'.  During 'replace',
${WRKDIR}/.pkgdb is created that is owned by root, so a subsequent
'bmake clean' (as a normal user) generates a batch of 'Permission denied'
complaints when trying to 'rm' the files there.

pkgsrc is from HEAD about ~0915UTC on 2007-08-12, and I rebuilt pkg_install
to ensure that I have the bleeding edge:

-> pkg_info | grep pkg_install
pkg_install-20070810 Package management and administration tools for pkgsrc

It makes no difference whether replace is done as root or as mortal.
In both cases, .pkgdb is there with the same files at the end of replace
(dir and files owned by root).

I have output from a 'replace' run as mortal with PKG_DEBUG_LEVEL=1 if
it's helpful.

Cheers,
Mark
