It's not a simple path problem. :-)

NetBSD 1.2.1 does not include Netatalk support. 1.2.1 is 1.2.0 with
a number of bug fixes. It has no new features. Netatalk support counts
as a new feature. :-) Among other things, the netatalk include files
are missing (which leads to these errors).

You did get the right netatalk kit.

Good! As the README says, just add "options NETATALK" to the kernel
config, and you're set.

:-) That comment was more an indication that we don't have LocalTalk yet.

The snapshots should just instal like 1.2.1 did.

I'd recomend either the April one with kernel patches I can send you,
or the one which will be released soon.

Take care,
