I can think of two possible reasons: You may have two different
versions of pkg_info on your machine; one from the old FBSD ports
system, and another in /usr/pkg/sbin from the new pkgsrc system.
Or, if you are using the new pkgsrc system, you should use 'bmake'
instead of 'make' for building and installing ports. (You still
use 'make' for building the operating system, though.)
And 'bmake' must be in your $PATH, of course. (I thinks it's in
/usr/pkg/bin IIRC.)
