Cant use add_pkg
I did an install of this weekend and followed the guide at netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-boot.html so i could get started after install.
In that guide it says that i have to activate a package source with following commands: # export PKG_PATH="ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/<PORT>/<RELEASE-NUMBER>/All" # export PKG_PATH When its done one should be able to install software with: # pkg_add -v softwarename I cant find a source for 5.0.1 and the 5.0 source wont work. If i use a 5.0 source pkg_add tells me i am using the wrong platform. I have been googling for a solution most of sunday without finding anything that helps. And those guides i find are obsolete. Any suggestions? |

Hi,
Did you paste exactly the same PKG_PATH? You should change <PORT> for example to i386, depends which port do you use. <RELEASE-NUMBER> change to 5.0. Best Regards Tom |

No.. thats just a paste from the guide. I changed to i386 and 5.0 when writing the line on my netbsd install. My NetBSD 5.0.1 wont accept a i386 5.0 repo
