Details

'pkgfile -u' currently fails to fetch a file list from a local repository (i.e., Server = file:///path/to/local/repo).

"Updating [local] file list... Extracting [local] file list... Unable to extract local.files.tar.gz"

I believe the error is triggered when the file list, which was to be downloaded, is not found as wget does not support 'file://'.

A proposed patch created against commit 6747e34f13 is attached.
