Hello...

Since the packages I want on my SE/30 are not yet available as 1.6 binaries, I thought I would try compiling from source.  My first attempt was dt 1.1.7, so I could have virtual consoles and reverse video.

===> dt-1.1.7nb2 is not available for NetBSD-1.6.m68k

Hmm, isn't the point of compiling from source to get the program on a platform it's not already available for?  Or maybe that "m68k" is a clue that I need to change some variable to "mac68k" specifically?  I don't know.

Also, 11 hours of compiling aterm 0.4.2 proved fruitless.  Too bad I didn't save a log of the whole process.  Now it's chewing away on blackbox 0.65.  We'll wait and see what happens there.

Are there mac68k-specific issues to using pkgsrc?  I've posted on the help list, but then thought maybe I should give a shout here too, just in case.

Thanks,
Tim
