pkg_info(1) - from Bug Hunting in PR pkg/47328. The following text is
taken from Bug's PR:
The pkg_info(1), pkg_admin(1), and pkg_install.conf(5) man pages
from pkgsrc' pkgtools/pkg_install package contain errors, have
inaccurate / incomplete / illogically ordered descriptions, have
incorrect macro usages / macro errors, miss an option description
(`-h', for pkg_info(1)), and / or contain other imperfections.
In short: these man pages can use a big correction update.
Additionally, the `usage' message in main.c from pkg_info(1) contains
an incorrect option order.
that we prefer pkgsrc for OpenSSL. While the latter doesn't actually work
yet, it's better that we are deterministic about this and do not pick up
the system OpenSSL regardless.
- Explicitly stat(2) if mkdir failed. errno detection doesn't work e.g.
on Solaris (PR 45289)
- Provide a stable order for package names that only differe in the base
name, not the version number.

ktrace shows that the +CONTENTS file is open() by pkg_add, I believe this is in
check_already_installed(), add/perform.c:381. Then pkg_delete is run and when
it comes to deleting the pkgdir entry, it finds that .nfs file and aborts.
