Stop.

when trying to build graphics/netpbm
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/netpbm/ && bmake update
>Fix:
A very dirty trick to circumvent the problem is to avoid conflicts between netpbm's various boolean declarations, and the standard boolean included in jasper.

That means editing /usr/pkg/include/jasper/jas_types.h, removing the reference to <stdbool.h> and use jasper's own bool definitions.

Of course this is not viable, but unfortunately I could not find anything better so far, because booleans are redeclared many times and in a lot of different ways in netpbm.
