Christian,

Just sending this mail to see if its getting truncated. It should
appear truncated in the archives (and other users), but should be ok
in your mailbox. This is the same mail that was previously truncated
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.devel.pkgsrc.user/1018).

Thanks,
Rakhesh

Thank you both, for clarifying that. :)
