Subject: Re: bin/30632: pkgtools in netbsd-2 branch are old 
Date: Mon, 03 Oct 2005 09:48:33 -0400

   Shortly _before_ this PR was submitted, the tools on the netbsd-2
   branch were updated to version 20050530; PKGTOOLS_REQD in pkgsrc is
   currently at 20050204, so this should be new enough to build any
   packages.  Can you please verify that this works for you on 2.1_RC5?
 
 On a system with netbsd-2 sources from 20050829, I just deleted the
 pkgsrc-installed tools and rebuilt and installed
 src/usr.sbin/pkg_install, and then was able to install a package.
 So yes, netbsd-2 was adequately up to date then, and it's fine with me
 to close the PR.
 
 Sorry, I must have updated, done a build and install, and then had
 trouble and not gone back to update/build/install/reboot - this was a
 machine I've never actually seen where I have to rely on someone else
 to be around at the console for reboots in case of trouble, so update
 timelines get stretched out.  Nevertheless I should have checked -
 sorry for the pointless report.
