I think the idea is that 1) userland code compiled for 1.5 runs just dandy
on 1.5.[12], and 2) there isn't a huge amount of free space on the ftp
server. So for packages which haven't changed in pkgsrc between 1.5 and
1.5.1, we don't add one for 1.5.1.

I think it would be nice though if someone made a set of symlinks (or hard
links) so that you could go to the version you have and see all the
packages for your version, even if they were built for an earlier one.

Take care,
