[oi-dev] error in pkg5 - from oi-prestable

[Bayard Bell]

I don't get this error with the version I'm using. What version do you have?

>From the error message, it looks like pkg might be confused about what
usage string to give you for the combination of -n and --help operands with
the update subcommand or its image-update alias. I shouldn't think you need
to use -n if you want --help. What happens if you use just the latter?
