2008-01-23Explicitly mention that the PKGREVISION must be incremented when arillig1-1/+2
dependency of the package changes. I still have problems with some packages that depend on GConf2, which doesn't exist anymore. The dependency has silently changed to GConf, without increasing any PKGREVISION. Same for gnome-vfs2 and gnome-vfs.
2008-01-04Adjusted the guide to the separation of pkglint and lintpkgsrc.rillig2-4/+8
2008-01-02Patches that replace the == argument to test(1) with a single = don'trillig1-3/+2

2007-10-18Almost all binary bootstrap kits are obsolete. The remaining ones arerillig2-227/+15
provided near the binary packages, to make finding them easier.
2007-10-18Rewrote the section on installing binary packages so that it reads morerillig1-51/+68
like a HOWTO instead of an arbitrary collection of facts. It also resembles the new directory layout on ftp.NetBSD.org now, with the bootstrap.tar.gz installed near the binary packages.

2007-09-22fix typokano1-2/+2
2007-09-21At Dieter's urging, rant about options vs split packages. (I am notgdt1-1/+31
set up for tools, and am guessing that commiting to source and not regenerating is better than not writing text.)
