Hi,

the suse-* packages want to install symlinks in directories that they 
{do,can} not create:


[hf@kilimanjaro] /emul/linux # pkg_add suse_base suse_devel
pkg_add: Package 
`ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc-2004Q1/NetBSD-1.6.2/i386/All/suse_base-7.3nb5.tgz' 
OS mismatch:
pkg_add: NetBSD/i386 1.6.2 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/i386 2.0_BETA (this host)
ln: /usr/pkg/emul/linux/usr/share/terminfo/p/patch: No such file or 
directory
pkg_add: command 'ln -fs ../u/unknown 
/usr/pkg/emul/linux/usr/share/terminfo/p/patch' failed
==============================================================================

Do not forget to include COMPAT_LINUX (and EXEC_ELF32 on NetBSD systems 
older than 1.5) in your kernel configuration file.  (Linux binaries 
require these options in order to work.)
