Thanks for the note. This may help others. Nevertheless, there may be=20
incompatibilities.

NetBSD doesn't provide pre-built packages against "development" (-current)=
=20
branch of NetBSD. If there is a huge enough interest of having NetBSD=20
provide pre-built packages for -current NetBSD, let us know.

The recommended way to install packages on a -current system is to build=20
your packages from source using "pkgsrc".

p.s. You may want to use current-users or pkgsrc-users list for this type=
=20
of email thread as they have focus on your comments.
