Re: sparc lost its binary pakages



Hi,

Indeed, old systems are becoming difficult with today's bloatware.

Non-TNF people are more than welcome to do builds and publish them, and
I'm happy to add links to SEE_ALSO.  It's just that we have a policy
that binaries on netbsd.org servers must be created on machines that are
entirely under the control of TNF members.   If the members of
port-sparc want to do builds and use them, not onftp.netbsd.org, that's
100% fine.

I have built over 64 packages now, with some very useful "core" packages like perl, bash, git and subversion, Certain took a day to built, but the good thing it tests the 2x CPU and NFS decently.

But I cannot host myself. Could TNF provide some sort of unofficial space?
