Hi Peter.

This is correct, however there are not binary 6.1.4 binary packages out.
You can however use the 6.1 packages, perl-5.18.1nb3 is in there.

Hi Perter,

If you have NetBSD/amd64 or NetBSD/i386 (or similar modern machines),
crosbuilding sparc packages from pkgsrc on such fast machine is
good idea.
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/doc/HOWTO-use-crosscompile

Note, some pkgsrc fails to crossbuilding, and some of built pkg
might not work correctlly. At reast, cross-built lang/ruby21 does
not work correcctly to install ruby gems.

Try using this for $PKG_PATH :
