Hi all,
I've dusted off my old Lemote Yeeloong and gotten OpenBSD 7.6 going on
it (it was running 6.9 I think… I just did a fresh install) and am in
the process of installing software.
I note there seem to be no `mips64el` packages available on the mirrors,
but no biggie, that's what ports are for.
Wondering if there was a Mastodon client in OpenBSD's ports tree, I did
a `make search key=mastodon` and was promptly told I need to install
`portslist` before I can do that.
Now, it suggests I run `pkg_add portslist`, which fails because there's
no package repository.
I did a `find` to see if I could locate a "portslist" package in the
ports tree… and still no luck. `sqlports` is there, and that may be the
ultimate answer, but those docs (and the error message in ports) could
probably use a pointer to the appropriate port name which installs
`portslist` -- for those second-class architectures where packages are
not being built.
Regards,

I haven't lost my mind...
...it's backed up on a tape somewhere.
