Is it normal that the install for pkgin - whether it's via the binary install option during the installer, or later when trying to install it manually - on #NetBSD just silently sits around for ages? How long does it usually take?
For the latter one, I even tried "pkg_add -vvvvv pkgin", let it sit for minutes, and... complete radio silence.

@Bright5park@kind.social I suspect that's because there's no IPv6 route, and NetBSD defaults to trying IPv6 first. I've struggled with this a lot, and ended up disabling ipv6, and pkgin then started to work just fine.
