I think the problem is just above this step:

"Note. As of the 1.4 release, the pkgsrc bootstrapping has been already 
installed on the system. The next step is not necessary on systems that 
already possess the bootstrapping"

If you still want to do the bootstrap "just in case", you can do so,
but you'll need to wipe PKGDIR? and PKG_DBDIR?

(/usr/pkg and /var/db/pkg in any case)

But again, the 'Note' should probably explain things and the bootstrap 
"just in case" shouldn't be needed if you're just getting started.

Thanks,
