Hmm, would it make sense to put the packages(7) manpage into the
pkg_utilities subdir, and thus install it also via
pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install?
This way we can make sure that it is at least in sync with the pkg_*
commands.
If that sounds reasonable, someone else should make that, since I don't
know how to cvs-move the file without loosing history...
