Thanks for the fix to lxqt-panel for the pulseaudio crash - have sent
nb5 to pkgsrc-pullup@ so we can get a working version in the branch :)

Regarding the dbus hang - have we confirmed whether netbsd-9 packages
on netbsd-10 show the issue? (To absolutely confirm it's a change in
the underlying netbsd-10 behaviour)?

(On a slightly related note the 10.0_2023Q3 amd64 packages are just
uploading now, though unfortunately from the wrong end of a
unremarkable network link :)

Thanks
