   1 $NetBSD: STATUS,v 1.38 2008/05/14 15:27:41 wiz Exp $
   2
   3 Below is a list of packages known to build on various non-NetBSD
   4 platforms.  Currently, there are three categories.  If all packages in a given
   5 category build, install, run and uninstall without any problems, then that
   6 platform satisfies the conditions for this category and may be labeled
   7 appropriately.
   8
   9
  10 'supported' means that pkgsrc on this platform is more than just
  11 experimental and can actually be used to provide a reliable environment
  12 for the average user.  Note that by their requirements, these packages pull in
  13 virtually all _essential_ packages that are not explicitly mentioned.
  14
  15
  16 A 'fully supported' platform supports virtually all packages (if
  17 available for that platform) and can reliably be used in a production
  18 environment.
  19
  20
  21 'yowza' finally adds a handful of packages that are known to be very
  22 complex and may not even be fully functional under NetBSD on platforms
  23 other than i386.
  24
  25
  26 You are strongly encouraged to add leaf packages which are known to
  27 build on certain platforms.
  28
  29 Some packages need only minor modifications to build on non-NetBSD
  30 platforms. Please attempt to fix any packages which are broken, or
  31 submit PRs if you are unable to.
  32
  33 Please add/correct entries as appropriate.
