Log Message:
I watched a reasonably computer literate person, who is not a
programmer try to follow these instructions and they failed big
time. Fix the instructions so that you don't have to be a pkgsrc
developer to understand them.
- replace ${PREFIX} (an undefined shell variable) with /usr/pkg where appropriate
- start the instructions with a cvs update
- note that moving the pkgdb directories must be done before you build pkg_install
- use update not install when building pkg_install so it works the package is already installed
- give an example of where pbulk.conf might be found
