Update pkgtools/pkg_install to 20050204 (latest release from the HEAD
branch of src). Changes from version 20050106:
Teach pkg_add(1) and pkg_delete(1) to pass PKG_METADATA_DIR and
PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR in the environment when running the +* scripts.
PKG_METADATA_DIR is the location of the +* files after the package is
registered. PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR is the location of the reference counts
database directory. If PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR is left unset, then it
defaults the the location of the package database directory with
".refcount" appended to the path, e.g. /var/db/pkg.refcount.
pkgviews users should explicitly set PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR in the shell
environment to ensure that all packages will use the same refcount
database.
These changes allow the +INSTALL and +DEINSTALL script to keep state
in +* files within ${PKG_METADATA_DIR}, and to store reference counts
in ${PKG_REFCOUNT_DBDIR} to handle usage of resources outside of
${LOCALBASE}.
