>Description:
The DISTNAME for sysutils/xuvmstat is formed from the
PKGNAME - when the revbump occurred a few days ago, that
had the side-effect of appending "nb1" to the DISTNAME.
This package was never intended to have PKGREVISION set,
since it is a local NetBSD package, any changes would
simply make a new version of the distfile. hence it
doesn't work very well with a PKGREVISION set.
>How-To-Repeat:
# no need to remove any old distfiles you cannot have the one
# it wants, there is no such thing
cd ..../pkgsrc/sysutils/xuvmstat
make fetch
>Fix:
The patch below works around the problem. I know this
isn't the way the pkgsrc people are going to fix it,
they will derive PKGNAME from DISTNAME instead. But
this works, and might allow anyone else who needs to
recompile xuvmstat after the revbump disaster to survive
until the correct fix is comitted.
