Binary Packages#

Where to find them#

• Binary packages for QNX are currently hosted on ftp.NetBSD.org. under ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/QNX.
  • The layout is pub/pkgsrc/packages/QNX/<arch>/<vers>
  • Bootstrap archives can be found under pub/pkgsrc/packages/QNX/<arch>/<vers>/bootstrap.tar.gz
  • Once a bootstrap archive is installed under your root directory (/), make a /var/tmp directory:

 # mkdir -p /var/tmp 

• • Packages can be added as follows:

# export PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/QNX/<arch>/<vers>/All
# pkg_add -v <package>

Known issues.#

• There were some packaging issues with a few packages that are known to build successfully in the last bulk build of binary packages. The cascade effect of this was that there are binary packages missing that do in fact build successfully. One such package that is a dependency for many others was ghostscript. See the bootstrap page if you want to attempt building from source.

6.3.2 packages.#

• Some early attempts at 6.3.2 packages can be found here: Binary Packages
