Summary:                    unable to  addpkg "pkg_get.pkg"  on my system (amd64
i386)
Description: 
Hi,

When i tried to add "pkg_get" I am getting following exception.



root at svn:/opt/csw# pkgadd -d http://www.opencsw.org/pkg_get.pkg

## Downloading...
..............25%..............50%..............75%..............100%
## Download Complete


The following packages are available:
  1  CSWpkgget     pkg_get - CSW version of automated package download
tool
                   (all) 4.0.1,REV=2008.12.15

Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process
all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: 1

Processing package instance <CSWpkgget> from
<http://www.opencsw.org/pkg_get.pkg>

pkg_get - CSW version of automated package download tool(all)
4.0.1,REV=2008.12.15

Current administration requires that a unique instance of the
<CSWpkgget> package be created.  However, the maximum number of
instances of the package which may be supported at one time on the
same system has already been met.

No changes were made to the system.

First of all, this  was misfiled under cswutils. it almost belongs under
pkg_get.

However, this is not a bug in pkg-get. you have an old version of it
installed, and you are using the system level tools directly. Nothing that
pkg-get itself can do about that.

To install it properly, using your existing methods, you would have to
first do:

# pkgrm CSWpkgget

and then you will be able to run

# pkgadd -d http://www.opencsw.org/pkg_get.pkg
