The most recent version of pkgsrc's quarterly releases is out: pkgsrc-2010Q4.
I'm starting the build of packages now - avalon should be back by the time
they finish, for upload. It usually takes at least a week. Packages for
i386/2.9 will be delayed somewhat, as avalon was where I built them.
(On that note, anyone have an AM2+ CPU, 4G of DDR2 RAM, or a hard drive
they'd be willing to donate so I can finish this box I'm putting together
for package building?)
If you want to pull down pkgsrc-2010Q4 RIGHT NOW and don't want to wait
for avalon to come back so you can grab it through git, cvs will work:
export CVSROOT=anoncvs at anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot
export CVS_RSH=ssh
cd /usr
cvs -q checkout -rpkgsrc-2010Q4 -P pkgsrc
Update with:
cvs -q update -dP
Or just switch back to git when it's available - there may be a clever way
to update, but I'd just delete the pkgsrc directory and re-download. It
may be possible to get the 2010Q4 branch via git from crater; I haven't
tried.
