Hi Dima (all)! I've found that the x86_64 and amd64 directories seem to be out of sync on cdn.netbsd.org. In short, pkg_summary seems to be updated in x86_64 but not in amd64. For me the following simple workaround worked:
I modified the repository pointer in /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf from: http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/9.0/All to: http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/x86_64/9.0/All then ran # pkgin update ... and it now works just fine. Why they are out of sync is "beyond my paygrade", and I leave it up to pkgsrc powers that be to figure that one out. ;-) Cheers, /Liman kab...@lich.phys.spbu.ru 2020-05-15 19:39 [+0300]: > I had same problems and I've found that CDN directory contents may be > not in sync with pkg_summary.
