binary package to a FreeBSD binary pkg. pkgsrc binary packages keep
more metadata, and do Dewey matching on package version numbers, so
it's not possible to convert in the other direction.
The DESCR says:
This is a small utility to generate a FreeBSD pkg binary package
from a pkgsrc binary package. It is invoked simply, using a
command like:
genpkgng ssam-1.9nb1.tgz
and it will convert the pkgsrc binary package to a pkg one:
% ./genpkgng.sh perl-5.18.1nb2.tgz
Converting perl-5.18.1nb2.tgz
