Thanks for testing, Brian. I second Dago's impression, we have had pkg-get
cope badly with testing (or any partial catalog) several times in the
past.

Did you try pkgutil?

  pkgutil -t http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/testing -u sendmail

When using -t, pkgutil automatically creates an internal overlay to the
catalog configured via pkgutil.conf and thus can resolve dependencies
which are not covered by testing alone. pkg-get doesn't do so IIRC.

Could we point that out on the testing page?
