+# Original from FreeBSD, no rcs id.
+
+This is the pkg_install suite of tools for doing maintainance of
+software "packages". More documentation is available in the man pages
+for each individual command.
+
+This code was written by Jordan Hubbard for FreeBSD, snatched and
+mildly reshaped by John Kohl in NetBSD and the changes taken back into
+FreeBSD again by Jordan, who then proceeded to add another couple
+of dozen features on top. Whee! :-)
+
+In another round of enhancements, NetBSD changes were added by
+Alistair Crooks and Hubert Feyrer, Thorsten Frueauf and Christian E.
+Hopps.
+
+When making snapshots, please modify PKGTOOLS_VERSION in lib/version.h
+to that day's date.
