This is based on the decision The NetBSD Foundation made in 2008 to
do so, which was already applied to src.
This change has been applied to code which is likely not in other
repositories.

pkgsrc is a framework for building software on UNIX-like systems.
To use, bootstrap using:
% cd pkgsrc/bootstrap/
% ./bootstrap
build packages, use:
% cd pkgsrc/category/package-name
% $PREFIX/bin/bmake install
Where $PREFIX is where you've chosen to install packages (typically /usr/pkg)
Bugs and patches can be filed in the follow link (use category 'pkg'):
https://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/sendpr.cgi?gndb=netbsd
To fetch the main CVS repository:
% cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot checkout -P pkgsrc
It's also possible to contribute through pkgsrc wip (work in progress), for
