Can we stop doing so?

IMHO "ftp vs. nyftp" just adds unnecessary complexity to the users.
Can we always use ftp as a primary upload place for packages?

There is one package (ncurses) both in i386 and amd64 repo having

REQUIRES=/usr/lib/lib{menu,form}.so.5

entry which is used by pkgin and nih and pkgin warns about
missing libraries during installation.
Neither libmenu.so.5 and libform.so.5
are a part of NetBSD-6 base.

According to OS_VERSION all packages were rebuild using 6.0.
I guess these two libraries appeared in build tree due to update from
5.{0,1} to 6.0.

TODO: fix build tree (at least remove these libs or recreate it from scratch),
rebuild ncurses and upload
ncurses package and updated pkg_summary.*
I don't know who is pkgmastr@, and thought this is you. Maybe riz@?
