Because noone built them. NetBSD 2.0 packages will run on 2.0.2

Looks like your pkgsrc tree is inconsistent. Try to update again.
Especially watch for lines starting with C or M: they mention files
in your local tree that have a conflics or are otherwise modified locally.

The tiff package got removed because of security issues (the policy has
since then changed: vulnerable packages are moved to a vulnerable/ subdir
instead of being deleted). I'm rebuilding pkgsrc-2005Q1 for 2.0 and 1.6.2
and will upload when finished, but it may need a few more 10s of hours:
there were a lot of missing or updated packages, some of them with deep
dependencies, and all of gnome and kde (among others) got rebuilt.
