Now that you have upgraded your arm32 box to 1.5, or even have
a nice shiny new arm32 system, you are no doubt wondering what fun
additional packages you can install. While there are over 1700
programs available in pkgsrc, many people prefer the convenience
of binary packages.
Various arm32 binary packages have been updated, and many more
added (Both tron and myself have been compiling away :)
Highlights include the complete gnome-1.2.4, kde-1.1.2 and
edesktop desktops, mozilla-0.m18nb1 (*) plus five other graphical
web browsers/html editors, eighteen window managers, a version of
BBC basic (brandybasic), word processor (abiword), and spreadsheet
(gnumeric) plus too many others to list (total over 240 packages).
All available at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.5/arm32/
If you have requests for more binary packages, please make them
known.
(*) There is a small linker bug which needs a workaround to get
mozilla compiled on a.out systems. If you want to compile
it yourself, see:
