>Description:
There are some problems in compiling NetBSD versions of uuencode and
uudecode utilities under other OSes (I need it under Linux) because
these utilities are not portable enough. Non-portable setprogname(3)
and getprogname(3) functions are used. I think there is no reason for
this.
See wip/netbsd-uuencode package. Trivial patches are there.
