Ten years of pkgsrc - Interviews!
NetBSD's packages collection - today known as "pkgsrc" -
has silently had its 10th birthday! To document the
system, its history and the overall state of the art,
Mark Weinem has written an article
"10 years of pkgsrc".
Besides talking bit about pkgsrc, in general, Mark did a number of
interviews:
There are too many gems to quote here (and I haven't read the full text yet),
but besides the interviews there is also information on
what Linux distributions use similar approaches than pkgsrc
(besides Gentoo :), other pkgsrc-related interviews, information
about pkgsrcCon, and information about the concept of Application
Directories.
