NetBSD pelleas.comcast.net 5.1.2 NetBSD 5.1.2 (GENERIC) #0: Thu Feb  2 17:22:10 UTC 2012  builds@b6.netbsd.org:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-5-1-2-RELEASE/i386/201202021012Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-5-1-2-RELEASE/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386

>Description:
In a newly-installed 5.1.2 system, pkg_add fails when 
PKG_PATH=ftp://<mirror>/pub/NetBSD/packages/5.1/i386/All.

The error:
dca@pelleas:~/Software/vim-source$ sudo -E /usr/sbin/pkg_add gnuplot
pkg_add: Error: package `gnuplot-4.4.3nb1' was built with a newer pkg_install version
pkg_add: 1 package addition failed


>How-To-Repeat:
Run /usr/sbin/pkg_add.
>Fix:
A workaround is to build and install pkgtools/pkg_add from pkgsrc and then place /usr/pkg/sbin earlier in PATH than /usr/sbin.
