I've always been told that OS version mismatches are not fatal for pkg_add,
but when I try this:
> pkg_add zsh
It says:
> pkg_add: Package `ftp://ftp.fr.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc-2005Q2/NetBSD-2.0/i386/All/zsh-4.2.5.tgz' OS mismatch:
> pkg_add: NetBSD/i386 2.0 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/i386 2.0.2 (this host)
> pkg_add: install script returned error status
> pkg_add: 1 package addition failed
Even with -f, pkg_add gives the same error.
Strangely enough, for some other packages, like links, it works fine.
How can I install binary packages on my 2.0.2 system?
