pkg_add from NetBSD would make more sense. When you run pkg_info, what
comes up?

naim works fine on my NetBSD/macppc box. However, if you want a slightly
easier IM client (install-wise), consider installing python and msnlib.
MSNlib gives you a nice, simple MSN Messenger client that works very well
and has support for a large number of basic text features.
