Hello,

I'm trying to follow Tino Wildenheim's instructions to install Zope on 
NetBSD
(http://www.zope.org/Members/tino/ZopeNetBSD)

  (NetBSD 1.6.1 on a qube2 with 'current' pkgsrc) and I'm running into a 
problem.

When attempting to install 'unproven-pthreads' according to Tino's 
instructions, I get the error message

'unproven-pthreads-0.17nb4 is not available for NetBSD-1.6.1-mipsel'

Does this mean that I wont be able to use Zope on this machine, or is 
the information dated, and another alternative is available?

There is a python21-pth in the 'current' pkgsrc. Would that and the 
zope in the pkgsrc be an acceptable alternative?

Is anyone using it on cobalt-mips?

Also, does anyone have any tips on how best to get Zope running in the 
NetBSD environment. My hope is to use it as a web content management 
system using PostgreSQL (using psycopg) and Apache with SSL

Thank you,
Nick
