>Description:
Multiple failures attempting to install packages through pkgin.
Stock configuration, no changes made to either NetBSD, pkgin or pkgsrc configuration.
For example:
Trying to install emacs, multiple packages are marked as 'not found' or 'unavailable' and pkgin stops the installation and asks "Proceed [y/N]" before failing the installation with $? returning '1'.
Restarting the installation may or may not solve the problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try installing the same package (emacs for example) several times.
It will usually fail on the same dependencies.
>Fix:
Sometimes, trying several times result in a succesful installation.
It is clear to me the problem is located on the mirror used by pkgin and not on the local machine.
