Did you apply the pkgng compatibility patch to portmaster? It's
available in ports-mgmt/portmaster now if you select the option in the
config dialogue.
Once patched, portmaster should interoperate with pkgng pretty smoothly.
Certainly it should be using pkgng's local.sqlite database to pull out
package contents rather than trying to parse +CONTENTS files.
Cheers,
Matthew
