I realise the "blazing fast" meme is getting very old at this point, but it's genuinely so much fun making Rust code even faster. You often end up with simpler, cleaner, more idiomatic code too.
The original C pbulk presolve code takes:
real 0m35.686s
user 0m35.229s

@jperkin Any chance of getting it moved from wip into pkgsrc before the 2026Q1 branch, please? 🙏😎#pkgsrc #prettyplease 😁
A diagram illustrating the relationship between OS, Package Management, and the different components: Add-on software, System Software, Applications/Utitlities/ Kernel/Firmware / Hardware

In this video, we continue our discussion of the difference and relationship between the operating system and so-called "add-on software". We conclude that in order to install and maintain all such software, we […]

The problem with releasing bob v0.8.1 with a bunch of great features (available now!) is that I just now thought of an absolutely killer feature.
v0.9.0 may be out sooner rather than later... This is something I've wanted from pbulk forever.
#pkgsrc #bob

Today’s #pkgsrc hacking:
1. Get fastfetch and all of its dependencies building on Mac OS 10.9 #MavericksForever
2. Include pkgsrc in the package report

How to pin a "pkgin" package, what is the right way to deploy my own packages?

#SenderRewritingScheme with #notqmail via #pkgsrc:
echo srs.dom.ain > control/srs_domain
echo "$SECRET" > control/srs_secrets
echo srs.dom.ain >> control/rcpthosts
echo srs.dom.ain:srs >> control/virtualdomains
echo "| srsfilter" > alias/.qmail-srs-default
+ MX for srs.dom.ain
#qmail lacks #TLS. #notqmail doesn't include it either (yet!). But if you install from #pkgsrc…
# chown qmaild:nofiles control/servercert.pem
# chmod 640 control/servercert.pem
# ln -s control/servercert.pem control/clientcert.pem
# update_tmprsadh
# /etc/rc.d/qmail restart
🔐
For our next trick with #notqmail from #pkgsrc:
Want to SMTP-reject SPF failures when the source domain specifies explicit-fail?
1. Add SPP_SPF_RESULT_FAIL="E550 spf_smtp_msg" to
control/tcprules/smtp
2. Run "/etc/rc.d/qmailsmtpd cdb"
3. There is no 3rd thing, is that clear?
Another neat trick with #notqmail from #pkgsrc:
The default SMTP configuration rejects nonexistent recipients.
(qmail famously accepts all recipients for its domains even when those recipients don't exist, and then has to queue totally avoidable bounce messages. But you won't.)
Another #notqmail from #pkgsrc trick:
To enable #greylisting, simply uncomment "greylisting-spp-wrapper" in control/smtpplugins. That’s it.
(Add any exempt recipient addresses to control/greylist/exemptrcpts, or entire recipient domains to control/greylist/exemptrcpthosts.)
# mkdir -p control/domainkeys/dom.ain # chown -R qmailr control/domainkeys # cd control/domainkeys/dom.ain # openssl genrsa -out default 1024 # chmod 640 default # openssl rsa -in default \ -pubout -out default.pub
Running #notqmail via qmail-run from #pkgsrc? Cool. Add #DKIM signing like so, then publish a TXT record with your `default` policy. Done!

Staged latest shairport-sync for #pkgsrc. Builds on NetBSD, #macOS. Normally I'd commit, wait for evbearmv6hf-el binary package, forget.
Trying something new today: cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/c...
Busy week upgrading all VMs to #NetBSD 10.1 to allow switching to HVM from PV (as #XenServer and @xcpng have dropped support for PV and unfortunately do not support PVH either) which means moving to uEFI booting rather than pygrub loading the kernel. Just waiting for the next #pkgsrc quarterly […]
Today I've been playing with #pkgsrc on #FreeBSD and trying to get some of my #NetBSD packages working on it.
pkgsrc bootstrap worked well on FreeBSD. Hardest part is remember you can't just type make any more!
I've been focussing on the #XenServer tools which looks to be rather stagnant in […]
Kiddo had song requests for his MP3 player. I used pkgin on his Mac to install yt-dlp and ffmpeg to do the job, and he (1) thinks I’m a magician and (2) wanted to try running the commands himself. #pkgsrc
Anyone know if #pkgsrc on x86_64 macos is supposed to have #rust more recent than rust-1.75.0? I feel like we should have 1.82.0: github.com/TritonDataCenter/pkgsrc/...

On top of that are "System Software" and "Applications/Utilities" next to each other and "Add-on or Third-Party Applications on top. "Package Management" comprises all layers from "Kernel" up; "Operating System" comprises "kernel", "system software", and "applications".

dinit is now available as sysutils/dinit in #pkgsrc!
After a brief hiatus, the #pkgsrc GitHub mirror is now up-to-date again! Now's the time to sync and get back to work.

Just added py-huggingface-hub (github.com/huggingface/...) to pkgsrc-wip. This new package should simplify managing the Hugging Face cache directory when using Candle with public models.

Setting up a NetBSD/evbarm VM to test new pkgsrc packages. It always feels like home when working with #NetBSD and #pkgsrc.
“Total lines of #pkgsrc infra changed: <100. We could not have done nearly as safe or thorough a job without good abstractions in place. If the new linker gives us any trouble, guess whether we have one place to take care of it?”
