In case someone googles that and would think it's a good idea to set the
variable like so, here's a better alternative:
echo 'export PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.XX.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/`uname
-r`/packages/`uname -m`/' >> ~/.profile
for -release and -stable, or
echo 'export
PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.XX.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/`uname
-m`/' >> ~/.profile
for guess what? -current of course! Even that your -current might not be
exactly the same one these packages were built on.
I was advised some time ago that using `uname -m` is wrong:
(`arch -s` should be a better choice)

That's why I've using this in the past (`arch -s` == `machine -a`):
# selected FTP mirrors in order of distance
OPENBSD_FTP_TIER2='ftp.eu.openbsd.org anga.funkfeuer.at
ftp.usa.openbsd.org'
OPENBSD_FTP_TIER3='mirror.hostfuss.com ftp.nluug.nl'
PKG_DIR=pub/`uname -s`/`uname -r`/packages/`machine -a`/
PKG_CACHE=/home/ftp/$PKG_DIR
PKG_PATH=$PKG_CACHE
for s in $OPENBSD_FTP_TIER3 $OPENBSD_FTP_TIER2; do
PKG_PATH=$PKG_PATH:ftp://$s/$PKG_DIR
done; s=
And yes, it's time to update my list.
