To try to get pkgsrc working on your system, please try the following
as root:
# ./bootstrap [ --prefix=${PREFIX} ] [ --pkgdbdir=${PKGDBDIR} ] \
[ --pkgsrcdir=${PKGSRCDIR} ]
The defaults for the arguments are as follows:
--prefix /usr/pkg
--pkgdbdir /var/db/pkg
--pkgsrcdir /usr/pkgsrc
It is perfectly acceptable to place ${PKGDBDIR} under ${PREFIX}.
Make sure that you have a working C compiler and make(1) binary in
your path.
See http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/software/packages.html for
more information about bootstrapping and using pkgsrc.
We'd be very interested in hearing of any successes or failures on
"unknown" (to us) systems.
