>Description:
        There are a bunch of packages that depend upon suse packages that
        exist in the suse73 set, but don't exist in the suse91 set.

        Those are
                emulators/vmware                wants suse91_vmware
                emulators/vmware3               wants suse91_vmware
                games/quake3arena               wants suse91_glx
                games/quake3arena-demo          wants suse91_glx
                multimedia/trplayer             wants suse91_libc5 suse91_slang
                www/asWedit                     wants suse91_libc5

        The packages lilsted after "wants" don't exist in the suse91 form
        (not in NetBSD pkgsrc anyway), the suse73 variants do exist.

>How-To-Repeat:
        Attempt to make any of the packages listed above on a NetBSD 2 (or
        -current) system, without the suse73 package set already installed.
        (Not sure if the "without" is a requirement or not).

>Fix:
        Either find the suse91 packages required, and import them, or
        make a method to allow those packages to explicitly depend upon the
        suse73 linux emulations, and change them to use that method (providing
        there are no problems having both 73 & 91 installed, which there
        shouldn't be really)..
