(You can safely skip two line below.) Why separating "distro"-installed packages with user-installed packages? They are just packages that are not necessary for the system to boot up. Skipped over the pain installing NetBSD, I found that there is no /usr/local, but /usr/pkg with the identical directory structure !!! Will it worth mentioning?
