OpenBSD packages are built through the ports system, which only includes pointers to where to get the source code + patches to that sourcecode to make it run on OpenBSD. Download ports.tar.gz, extract it (into /usr/ports, canonically) and read the Makefile for the program you want. It'll have the URL you want. -Nick
