Significance of "nb" in binary package name?
I was perusing the NetBSD package binaries and noticed that some are tagged with "nb"
For example: What does "nb" signify and are these packages preferable over non-nb packages? Thanks in advance |

I believe it must be the patch level, the highest number being for the latest (i.e. the most secure/stable) version.
