I am a MacOS 10.1 user.  I have also used a few un*x like distributions 
in the past on some of  my machines (linux, netbsd, freebsd).  So, 
anyway, i'm using MacOS X now and I would really like to use the NetBSD 
package system as one of my software installation/maintenance managers.  
I am also using Fink (a new MacOS X package manager, though not nearly 
as robust).  Again, i'd like to be able to use the NetBSD package system 
as well.  Currently, I have part of the system already downloaded from 
CVS.  I have all of the build instructions and such, but I don't have 
any of the tools (e.g. pkg_* -pkg_add, etc...).  I can't find the source 
code specifically for these tools and i'm afraid that are part of the 
larger, basic system install.  Currently, I am not at all sure whether I 
can do this or not, but I would like to try if someone can help me 
through the process.


Thanks in advance,

Patrick Wood
