Thank you for pointing that out. I am updating now.

I downloaded the NetBSD-9.99.60-amd64-install.img (date stamped May
07, 2020)  this morning and installed on my Lenovo X200. I did select
the option to download pkgsrc. I changed the path from stable to
current and that is what was pulled in.

I didn't find NetBSD-9.99.60-amd64-install.img anywhere, therefore I
used another ISO image. I installed NetBSD 8 in a VM and, like you,
changed the pkgsrc path from stable to current.

This way, pkgsrc was downloaded from
https://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/, where all files have been
updated today in the morning.

I would expect that these files are updated daily. There are exactly 7
days between 2020-05-02 and 2020-05-09 though, therefore it could also
be that the files are updated weekly. I don't think that's the case,
we'll see tomorrow.

Indeed the archives in /pub/pkgsrc/current/ are only updated weekly. The
pkgsrc tree with the individual files is updated daily though.

In such a case you can always "cvs update" locally since the archives
include the CVS metadata.
