Joyent package repo migrated to MNX
Hey all, If you are a user of the binary package repository I previously made available from https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ note that it has been updated and migrated over to MNX. New and upgrade bootstrap kits are now available from: https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/install-on-netbsd/ If you're a new user, or wish to perform a fresh install, follow the default "Install" instructions. If you have an existing install, following the "Upgrade" instructions will overwrite your config files to switch the repository URLs over, as well as installing the new PGP key. Any issues, let me know. Thanks! -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
Daily packages for NetBSD/amd64 9.99.x
Hey all, Due to the pkgdb change, I've had to redo the daily packages I offer for NetBSD current on amd64. Given that, I took the opportunity to make some other changes. I've enabled CHECK_OSABI=no and CHECK_OS_VERSION=no. This means you can now use them on any 9.99.x system, as long as the REQUIRES match (which pkgin will tell you), avoiding the need to constantly redo them every time the version is bumped. The only things that won't work are anything that are specifically tied to the exact kernel version used by the build system. I'll update the build systems every so often, so as long as you're running something reasonably current then 99.9% of the packages should just work. As always, if you want to use them, grab the newest bootstrap kit using the instructions available from: https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ Given the pkgdb change, existing users should just completely wipe their existing package installs and start again, using the instructions provided. "pkgin export" prior to the reinstall and "pkgin import" afterwards can help get you back up quickly. Cheers, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
Daily packages for NetBSD/amd64 9.99.75
Hey everybody, I've updated my daily NetBSD package bulk builds to the newest 9.99.75 snapshot. This means the existing repository of packages for 9.99.73 will no longer be updated, and will eventually be removed. New users can fetch and install the bootstrap kit from here: https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ Existing users can switch URLs in the following files: /usr/pkg/etc/pkg_install.conf /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf and run "pkgin upgrade" to refresh everything. Note that for users in the EU you may find the package mirror from the SkyLime folks faster than my server in us-west: https://pkgsrc.smartos.skylime.net/packages/NetBSD/ Their mirror should be updated by tomorrow. As always let me know if there are any problems, or requests for different package options etc. Cheers, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
Daily NetBSD packages updated to 9.99.73
Hey everybody, The binary package repository I provide of daily pkgsrc trunk builds for NetBSD/amd64 at https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ has now been switched from 9.99.71 to 9.99.73. For existing users, update /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf to point to the 9.99.73 directory, or new users can just use the new bootstrap kit provided. New to this bootstrap kit is the inclusion of the pkgsrc-gnupg-keys package, which supplies the pkgsrc-security GPG key to provide out of the box support for "pkg_admin fetch-pkg-vulnerabilities -s". Unfortunately due to http://gnats.netbsd.org/54048 this doesn't actually work with netpgp right now, but that will hopefully be solved at some point. The 9.99.71 repository will no longer be updated, and will eventually be removed. Thanks, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
Daily NetBSD packages updated to 9.99.71
Hey everybody, The binary package repository I provide of daily pkgsrc trunk builds for NetBSD/amd64 at https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ has now been switched from 9.99.69 to 9.99.71. For existing users, update /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf to point to the 9.99.71 directory, or new users can just use the new bootstrap kit provided. The 9.99.69 repository will no longer be updated, and will eventually be removed. Thanks, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com

This shouldn't preclude you or anyone else using it, the problems I'm running into are primarily limited to a bulk build environment, but does mean that it's quite annoying for those who are doing so. -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com

Hey Lewis, I was going to choose 9.0, but I saw that mef@ was already producing regular bulk builds on that for pkgsrc-current available here: https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/9.0_current/ so went with NetBSD-current instead, though it's quite unreliable so I may revisit that choice if every bulk build requires manual intervention and restarts. > BTW, the Package Development wiki pages at > > https://github.com/joyent/pkgsrc/wiki > > need to be updated to include NetBSD.

Is that > to explicitly allow the signed packages only? Sure, you could perform all the steps manually by yourself instead: * Set PKG_PATH to the repo and install the pkgin package. * Fetch the PGP key from https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/pgp/ and import it. * Configure pkgin and pkg_install.conf to use the repo, and configure pkg_install.conf with your preferred VERIFIED_INSTALLATION setting. * Install the mozilla-rootcerts package and run the install script. The point of the bootstrap kit is to just do all this for you, but the end result is the same, so choose the easy way or the harder way I guess ;) Cheers, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
Daily packages for NetBSD/amd64 current
Hey everybody, I needed a NetBSD-current system for testing pkgin changes, and figured I may as well also set it up for daily package builds. So if anybody would like a repository for the latest packages then head over to https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-netbsd/ to install the bootstrap kit. All packages are signed, the mozilla-rootcerts certificates are shipped to enable HTTPS, and I enabled a bunch of PKG_OPTIONS by default. Feel free to request further additions. Hope you find it useful. Cheers, -- Jonathan Perkin - Joyent, Inc. - www.joyent.com
