Thank you in advance for any and all replies.
The NetBSD 10 branch (note that NetBSD 10.0 has not been released) recently had an ABI break, so packges built before the ABI change no longer worked. We have withdrawn all pre-ABI-change packages as they will not work with up-to-date 10. And, because the point of 10 is to help test for the upcoming 10.0 relase, everyone running 10 should be running up-to-date 10. Packages from after the ABI break are available for aarch64 and earmv[67]hf-el. Someone is working on packages for 2023Q3 for amd64 but I don't have a firm ETA. Tomorrow is pretty much unthinkable and 30 days is pretty likely. In between is much harder to talk about!
