We're done mething different with the 1.5 binary packages, and it's
not working! The CD is probably going to be a snapshot of what's on
ftp.netbsd.org now, so don't count on the packages being in any better
shape on that. I imagine most users are building their own packages.
Why not unpack "pkgsrc.tar.gz" from the CD, and give that a try?
