Notes
(0003581) francis (administrator) 2014-09-29 08:57	Is this really a new installation? Do you have an old /usr/local/pf/var/cache directory lying around?

(0003582) Sismon (reporter) 2014-09-29 09:06	Forget it, from scratch indeed, just ran a brand new Wheezy, and no issues. So you're saying that --purge, is not cleaning the old cache of pf ? You can close, if, sorry for that...

(0003583) francis (administrator) 2014-09-29 09:25	No. Purging the packages removes /usr/local/pf.
