Sanitize package version…
-
Dunno about others, but I'm not particularly happy about the "sanitization" of package versions that's been done. Mainly for the reason that we totally lost the upstream package version information where it was present. I'd kinda expect a better sanitization scheme. :(
-
It's being done to make progress in pushing toward pkg-friendly packages. Had to happen that way since "our" package version is being used in a meta-package which then depends on the actual binary package. Not sure what the plan is on exposing those versions again but I believe it's on the roadmap.
[2.3-DEVELOPMENT][root@pfsense.localdomain]/root: pkg search pfsense-pkg pfSense-pkg-Asterisk-0.3.1 pfSense-pkg-AutoConfigBackup-1.28 pfSense-pkg-Avahi-v1.09 pfSense-pkg-Backup-0.1.6 pfSense-pkg-Cron-0.1.9 pfSense-pkg-FTP_Client_Proxy-0.2 pfSense-pkg-Filer-0.60.1 pfSense-pkg-Lightsquid-2.41 pfSense-pkg-Notes-0.2.4 pfSense-pkg-Open-VM-Tools-1280544_10 pfSense-pkg-OpenBGPD-0.9.3_2 pfSense-pkg-Postfix_Forwarder-2.4.2 pfSense-pkg-Quagga_OSPF-0.6.5 pfSense-pkg-RRD_Summary-1.1 pfSense-pkg-Sarg-0.6.4 pfSense-pkg-Service_Watchdog-1.6 pfSense-pkg-Shellcmd-0.6 pfSense-pkg-System_Patches-1.0.3 pfSense-pkg-TFTP-2.1 pfSense-pkg-apache-mod_security-devel-0.43 pfSense-pkg-arping-1.1 pfSense-pkg-bandwidthd-0.5 pfSense-pkg-bind-0.3.9 pfSense-pkg-blinkled-0.4.3 pfSense-pkg-darkstat-3.0.718 pfSense-pkg-diag_new_states-0.2 pfSense-pkg-dns-server-1.0.6.21 pfSense-pkg-freeradius2-1.6.12 pfSense-pkg-gwled-0.2.1 pfSense-pkg-haproxy-0.23 pfSense-pkg-haproxy-devel-0.23 pfSense-pkg-iftop-0.17 pfSense-pkg-imspector-0.3.2 pfSense-pkg-iperf-2.0.5_1 pfSense-pkg-ipguard-0.1 pfSense-pkg-mailreport-2.3 pfSense-pkg-mailscanner-0.2.12 pfSense-pkg-mtr-nox11-0.85_2 pfSense-pkg-netio-1.26 pfSense-pkg-nmap-1.3 pfSense-pkg-ntopng-0.5 pfSense-pkg-nut-2.0.4 pfSense-pkg-olsrd-1.0.2 pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export-1.2.16 pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG-1.09 pfSense-pkg-pfflowd-1.0.3 pfSense-pkg-routed-1.1 pfSense-pkg-siproxd-1.0.3 pfSense-pkg-snort-3.2.4 pfSense-pkg-softflowd-1.1 pfSense-pkg-spamd-1.1.2 pfSense-pkg-squid-0.2.8 pfSense-pkg-squidGuard-1.9.14 pfSense-pkg-stunnel-5.07 pfSense-pkg-sudo-0.2.5 pfSense-pkg-suricata-2.1.5 pfSense-pkg-varnish-0.2.4 pfSense-pkg-vnstat2-1.12_3 pfSense-pkg-widentd-1.03_2 pfSense-pkg-zabbix-agent-0.8.5 pfSense-pkg-zabbix-proxy-0.8.5

And then some errors because it's not 100% there yet, but you get the idea.
All in due time.
