Thanks for the pointers!
The constraint is not a problem since I always compile packages from
source.
I guess the package has been renamed? According to the NetBSD site,
under pkgtools there is no such "xpkgwedge", and a "x11-links" seems to
do what you're describing. No error? Am I wrong? Is the site wrong? I'll
check when I'll get home anyway.

Thank you again!
