>Description:
went to the package tree to download the sourcecode for dptutils.
it's not there, anywhere.  links to download i386 binaries, but
no link to actual source code.  Went to the ftp site, where makefile
is, and looked through all the files and directories.  No source code.
can you send me the url for the sourcecode and a link to the 
methodology to compile it ie. (make, or make clean depend && make,
make make install, etc.)  thanks david burleigh

 thanks, but that's not what I'm looking for.  dptutil is not available in 
 the package source, which is the problem.  dptutil is not available anywhere 
 that I can find.  It's a userland app, and therefore should have no 
 dependencies, but I can't find the source code.

 all I need is a URL to the source code for dptutil. I'm not using pkgsrc, 
 I'm using a Sun E450 sparc64 and need to compile under that architecture.  
 That box does not have internet access at this time, so I have to copy to CD 
 and install from there.  The box that I am using for the net is Mandrake 
 10.1 not a bsd.  I should be able to simply go to an FTP site, find the 
 source and download that package individually, not bundled with a hundred 
 other apps.

 Learning linux and bsd is rather difficult enough as it is; one would think 
 that the task of being able to directly download code through FTP without 
 being constrained to use a helper app like pkgsrc should be pretty straight 
 forward.

 thanks for any help.

 Please post your questions to the pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org list.
 This is not a bug, so the bug tracking system is not the proper place
 for this discussion.

 Thanks,

 Martin

 The source code can be found at
 	http://www.interlude.eu.org/~ad/raidmgt/
 which is noted in the pkgsrc Makefile under MASTER_SITES.
 pkgsrc has some patches which you might want to apply,
 other than that it looks like a 'make' and manual installation
 are the way to go. Please read the pkgsrc Makefile for details.
 Or just use pkgsrc, which also supports Solaris.
