Re: binary pkgsrc on freebsd?

How far does the binary compatability between *BSD derivatives extend?
I'm thinking of trialling FreeBSD on this host for the ZFS capability
however I'd like to stick to using pkgsrc for my package management.
I don't think you can run NetBSD binaries on FreeBSD easily.
There's COMPAT_FREEBSD, but I don't know in what state it is.
Try, see, and report back.
As for using pkgsrc to build your own packages: when you bootstrap, you
will get a whole set of pkg_* tools from pkgsrc, and you should then use
them over FreeBSD's native pkg_* tools. The ones from pkgsrc will just do
what you know from NetBSD.
