Re: Libreoffice after upgrade to NetBSD 8.0

[Robert Nestor]

I’ve run into this a few times using pkgin.  Not sure if it’s a problem with 
pkgin or with the packages and their dependencies.  What seems to work for me 
is to remove the newer version of the package that it’s complaining about, then 
retrying the installation.  In you case, remove boost-headers-1.67.0nb4, then 
try the install of libreoffice again.

This may not be the best or even correct solution, especially if you have lots 
of packages installed.  But in my installation I only have a few packages 
installed and this seems to get me past that hurdle.

Possible donation of Itanium servers

[Osipov, Michael]

Hi folks,

we have several Intel Itanium severs from HPE which we are going to 
replace by the end of this year. They are quite large (4U). We could 
donate them (after some internal clarifications) to the foundation. They 
must be picked up by someone in Berlin, Germany.


I did not contact the netbsd-ia64 mailing list because it seems to be dead.

Best regards,

Michael Osipov
