>Description:
Hi,  I just found out there is some little problems with the NetBSD kde packages.
Let's say I type "pkg_add ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.5/i386/All/kdebase-2.1.tgz"
It got no problem reaching that file, but somehow, when it tries to add the dependecies, 
I found out there is some typo in some package name... like libtool-info-1.4.20010219nb6 it will try
to install instead libtool-info-1.4.20010219nb6.tbz
Note there it tries .tbz instead of tgz...
If that could be resolve, it would make life a lot easier to install the kde window manager.
Please let me know of any changes you made etc...
Thanx
>How-To-Repeat:
pkg_add ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.5/i386/All/kde-2.1.tgz	
>Fix:
I'll write down one of the numerous error message

pkg_add: <(null)> (1) add of dependency 'libtool-info-1.4.20010219nb6' failed!
pkg_add: unpackURL: verification expandURL failed
Error on unpackURL('ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.5/i386/All/libtool-info-1.4.20010219nb6.tbz', '/var/tmp/instmp.01076c')

It does the same thing for lot's of dependencies...
