Look at it this way, softdep will soon be removed, so WAPBL it is. From the NetBSD 6.x changes list:
Quote:
softdep
- The soft dependences / soft updates feature of the fast file system (FFS) has been supplanted by meta data journaling (logging). Logging provides better reliability and better performance for most applications. Soft dependencies will no longer be available from NetBSD 6.0 onwards. We encourage users to enable logging on FFS file systems. [ad 20090222]

The link I gave you will provide everything, just do this:
Code:
# pkg_add -v ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/i386/5.0/All/gnome-2.26.2.tgz
All best
