pkgsrc-current packages for Debian Linux (eglibc) running on x86_64 / AMD64 systems

[Sevan Janiyan <venture37%geeklan.co.uk@localhost>]

Hello,
Following on from Tuesdays announcement[1] of the availability of
packages for ARMv7, I've made available the packages for 64bit x86 Linux
which were built on a 3rd party VM contributed by Mischa Peters[2].

Bulkbuild report for current version of packages:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-bulk/2016/03/25/msg012545.html

To get started:
1) Fetch bootstrap.tar.gz from
https://files.venture37.com/pkgsrc/packages/3rdparty/Linux/Debian/amd64/bootstrap.tar.gz

2) As root: tar -xzf bootstrap.tar.gz -C /

3) export
PKG_PATH=http://files.venture37.com/pkgsrc/packages/3rdparty/Linux/Debian/amd64/All/

4) pkg_add -v irssi

5) irssi should be installed in /usr/pkg/bin

6) confirm by running /usr/pkg/sbin/pkg_info

Regards


Sevan Janiyan
