I don't think _that_ happened, but it is resolved anyway.
maybe PKG_RESUME_TRANSFERS=YES ???

per Documentation/pkgsrc/getting.html#via-sup
I expected this sup to make my tree current...
# rm /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/x11-links/xfree.mk
# sup /usr/share/examples/supfiles/sup.netbsd.org
SUP 8.26 (4.3 BSD) for file /usr/share/examples/supfiles/sup.netbsd.org at Oct 16 18:23:46
# grep buildlink3.mk /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/x11-links/xfree.mk
grep: /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/x11-links/xfree.mk: No such file or directory
but cvs (Documentation/pkgsrc/getting.html#via-cvs)
does seem to do the job.

Per /usr/pkgsrc/print/teTeX/DESCR
I thought that was the best way to setup for authoring tex,
how would I to have found print/teTeX3-bin?

Forgive me, I'm completely new to NetBSD and PKGSRC. I was
searching NetBSD Problem Reports and Documentation/pkgsrc
when I wrote. The Misc/send-pr.html page doesn't indicate it
is for PKGSRC and I thought it was only for the core OS --
also guessed the bug-id was prepended to messages posted to
pkgsrc-bugs@netbsd.org
Anyway, appreciate your help. I've deinstalled cleaned and
reinstalled x11-links and print/teTeX without any error. The only
issue I have is why did sup fail to upgrade pkgsrc but cvs works?
(moved to tech-pkg@NetBSD.org, per request)
