If you guys are having issues with Pkgsrc and pkg_add in 5.0, you might have the same problem i had. If you follow the pkgsrc guide directions in 5.0, you might run into the problem:
following the pkgsrc guide section 2.1.3. Via anonymous CVS, I did the folowing:
To fetch a specific pkgsrc stable branch from scratch, run:
$ cd /usr
$ cvs checkout -r pkgsrc-200xQy -P pkgsrc
however, that does not work, since permissions were not set. Initially I just went to su and did it to override. However, this gave me tons of errors when trying to install packages. You need to chmod o+w /usr as root before you proceed, and then proceed normally.
