pkgin 25.10.0 released.

Fixes an issue where changes to the pkgdb outside of pkgin operations (e.g. manually running pkg_add) could affect subsequent upgrades and lose autoremove information.

I'll get this into the SmartOS and macOS trunk builds over the weekend.

#pkgin #pkgsrc

This was a while back.

Monitor of a DECstation 5000/200 with X, running some xterms and the Netscape web browser. The foreground xterm shows cvs updating NetBSD pkgsrc. The background xterm shows me on either IRC or ICB - don't remember. xearth is populating the background.

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:

#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! 😉
