@veer66 #pkgsrc works on a number of different operating systems, including Linux and MacOS. You don't have to run #NetBSD to use pkgsrc 🤘

The classic "BYTE Benchmark" from the 1990s, still out there in #PkgSrc

@veer66 Why not create your own pkgsrc entry (ie directory, Makefile, distinfo, DESCR, PLIST and any patches) for your own software? Maybe add it to #pkgsrc-wip so everyone can use it?Then you won't be breaking abstractions, and you and others can use it on other autotools-supported platforms you may not have access to (pkgsrc makes sure config.sub and config.guess are consistent everywhere)

@jpmens

In the spirit of there always being 1 more #vi clone than one thinks, notice that @lpar 's list is lacking Ali Gholami Rudi's #neatvi which is packaged in #pkgsrc and about a decade old now.

https://pkgsrc.se/editors/neatvi

And even then the rule still applies. There's 1 more clone: Sterling Huxley's and Brent Roman's #viless, a quarter of a century old and what #BusyBox supplies.

#NetBSD #OmniOS

Hi :)

...moved instance. Now running self-hosted on SmartOS.

If you don't know me yet, I mostly post about #illumos and #pkgsrc things.

Whoa, TIL that #pkgsrc has a well-stocked "Wayland" category these days.

1. Get fastfetch and all of its dependencies building on Mac OS 10.9 #MavericksForever

2. Include pkgsrc in the package report

Alt...

fastfetch output

I've updated my binary package repository for PowerPC Mac OS X. New and updated packages for curl, git, python 3.10, apache, nginx, openssh, rsync, yt-dlp, vim, zsh, tmux, and many more.

Want to SMTP-reject SPF failures when the source domain specifies explicit-fail?

1. Add SPP_SPF_RESULT_FAIL="E550 spf_smtp_msg" to
control/tcprules/smtp
2. Run "/etc/rc.d/qmailsmtpd cdb"
3. There is no 3rd thing, is that clear?

The default SMTP configuration rejects nonexistent recipients.

(qmail famously accepts all recipients for its domains even when those recipients don't exist, and then has to queue totally avoidable bounce messages. But you won't.)

To enable #greylisting, simply uncomment "greylisting-spp-wrapper" in control/smtpplugins. That’s it.

(Add any exempt recipient addresses to control/greylist/exemptrcpts, or entire recipient domains to control/greylist/exemptrcpthosts.)

You should know #pkgsrc 2025Q3 was released yesterday:

https://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2025/09/25/msg042016.html

#netbsd

Today I tagged #pkgsrc 2025Q3. Announcement forthcoming.

I'd prefer #NetBSD: https://schmonz.com/2024/06/07/small-arms/

Staged latest shairport-sync for #pkgsrc. Builds on NetBSD, #macOS. Normally I'd commit, wait for evbearmv6hf-el binary package, forget.

Trying something new today: https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/doc/HOWTO-use-crosscompile

Experiences with #dreckly / #pkgsrc on obscure Unixes:

#UnixWare - bootstrap succeeded! Just needed a few simple fixes.
#OpenServer - see UnixWare.
#BSDOS - kernel panic during installation. Support incomplete.
#HPUX - kernel panic during installation.
#QNX - bootstrap success! No changes needed.
#Haiku - bootstrap failed due to open() behaviour. "Invalid argument".

If you have a shell on an #IRIX or #HPUX machine, please let me know!

All right, pkgsrc 2025Q1 has just been announced on the mailing lists.

It's not even on pkgsrc.org yet! 😉
