NetBSD rez 10.0 NetBSD 10.0 (GENERIC) #0: Thu Mar 28 08:33:33 UTC 2024  mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/zaurus/compile/GENERIC zaurus
>Description:
I am using NetBSD 10.0 on Sharp Zaurus SL-C3200.When installing packages from https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pubc/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/earm/10.0/All all packages seem to be compiled for earmv4, resulting in a warning:

pkg_add: Warning: package `mpg123-1.32.6' was built for a platform:
pkg_add: NetBSD/earmv4 10.0 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/earm 10.0 (this host)
pkg_add: 1 package addition failed

Using pkg_add with `-f` (force) option, the packages install fine.

I've checked +BUILD_INFO of few packages and they really have earmv4 as architecture. Also, 9.4 seems also to have same issue.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Install NetBSD on Sharp Zaurus :)
2. Set PKG_PATH to https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pubc/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/earm/10.0/All
3. pkg_add any package

>Fix:
Compilation of earm packages should be done for armv5 architecture

 As the message indicates, the warning isn't fatal. In fact, earm
 is _supposed_ to be an alias for earmv4. pkg_install's checks
 are simply wrong.

 So, the real problem is somewhere else. Can we see the
 mega-mega-verbose output?

 The mega verbose output is not so verbose:

 (regular)
 rez# pkg_add readline
 pkg_add: Warning: package `readline-8.2nb2' was built for a platform:
 pkg_add: NetBSD/earmv4 10.0 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/earm 10.0 (this host)
 pkg_add: 1 package addition failed

 (verbose)
 rez# pkg_add -vvv readline
 pkg_add: Warning: package `readline-8.2nb2' was built for a platform:
 pkg_add: NetBSD/earmv4 10.0 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/earm 10.0 (this host)
 pkg_add: 1 package addition failed

 So I did some source reading and it seems that CHECK_OS_VERSION is used to =
 ignore the version number of the release only, but doesn't apply to archite=
 cture.

 This means that there is no way to work around it via pkg_install.conf (my =
 use case here is running BUILD_DEPENDS=3Dbin-install make depends and happi=
 ly re-using prebuild earmv4 binary packages on earmv5 machine for some of t=
 he dependencies).=20

 Can we consider introducing new CHECK_ARCH configuration variable or extend=
 ing the meaning of CHECK_OS_VERSION?
