Does anyone know if there is a straight-forward way to "pkg install" an old package version? I'd like to do this in an iocage jail and can't figure out the best way to do this. It doesn't appear you can specify a version on the command line, unless I'm missing something.

Try searching with pkg search <package name>. If its still there just use the name for the version you want. If its already been pulled from the repo, you can't. In that case find a repo with the version you want or download the source and build... might have better luck with ports. DISCLAIMER I'm new to BSD package management and have no idea what I'm talking about.
