Ahh, that's way outa my league to discuss. I've dealt with a "million"
package managers from all forms of un*x and I really think that for
NetBSD, pkgsrc is or can be fine. If there's some better way to manage
packages (this gobo thing is interesting but a whole 'nother thing to
learn), I'll leave it up to people who can make a good argument for
it.

pkgsrc has it's quirks, but they all do. I'm fine with it.
