I'm running into the same problems while attempting to install pre-built
binaries from the NetBSD ftp site.  Virtually nothing appears to be
complete.   

Sheesh, I don't know how many packages that I've attempted to install, only
to thwarted by non-existent or missing dependencies.

Anybody know what's going on there?

Regards,
