	When trying the latest pkgsrc.tar.gz, I was told to install the
	newest verion of the package tools. When building these, I get
	the following:

	all ===> delete
	cc -O  -Werror  -I/usr/tmp/pkgtools/pkg_install/work/pkg_install/delete/../lib  -DBINDIR='"/usr/sbin"' -DCHMOD='"/bin/chmod"' -DCHOWN='"/usr/sbin/chown"' -DCHGRP='"/usr/bin/chgrp"' -c main.c
	cc -O  -Werror  -I/usr/tmp/pkgtools/pkg_install/work/pkg_install/delete/../lib  -DBINDIR='"/usr/sbin"' -DCHMOD='"/bin/chmod"' -DCHOWN='"/usr/sbin/chown"' -DCHGRP='"/usr/bin/chgrp"' -c perform.c
	cc  -Wl,-R/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -Wl,-R/usr/lib -L/usr/lib  -o pkg_delete main.o perform.o -L/usr/tmp/pkgtools/pkg_install/work/pkg_install/lib -linstall
	main.o: Undefined symbol `_asprintf' referenced from text segment
	pen.o: warning: mktemp() possibly used unsafely, consider using mkstemp()

>How-To-Repeat:
	try to install cdrdao, which was not present in the previous
	pkgsrc I had installed.
>Fix:
	Replace the following in pkg_install/delete/main,c

	        asprintf(&fn, "%s/%s", _pkgdb_getPKGDB_DIR(), pkg);

	with

		fn = malloc(4096);
		snprintf(fn, 4096, "%s/%s", _pkgdb_getPKGDB_DIR(), pkg); 

	maybe conditionally compiled on NetBSD version.

	Do the same in delete/main.c.

-Olaf.
