Yeah, specifically about problems where the vagaries of the specific system might not match some of the dependencies compiled into that binary, however common they might be on Linux with GNU libc elsewhere. If you need to build from source to work around this, especially on systems with odd/old local dependencies without affecting the other parts of the base system that perhaps have to be kept that way for other reasons, pkgsrc might make that easier. It will install its own sets of dependencies if needed, without entangling with the existing platform. > (might be a good idea to add a link there, to the pkgsrc page for monotone) Indeed. In the meantime, that link is http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/devel/monotone/README.html (not that it's particularly exciting, since it talks more about monotone than about pkgsrc. For how to get started, if you need it, see: http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/pkgsrc/ -- Dan.
