Building CCNx on NetBSD

Install the needed packages (as root):
Set your PKG_PATH appropriately for your installation - it will
probably be something that looks like
	
	ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/AAAA/VVVV/All

where AAAA is your architecture and VVVV is the pkgsrc version.

	pkg_add -v expat
	pkg_add -v libxml2

That will be sufficient for building the c-based portions.

If you want to use java, install these as well:

	pkg_add -v pkg_alternatives
	pkg_add -v openjdk7
	pkg_add -v apache-ant

For access to sources via git, you also need:

	pkg_add -v scmgit-base

To build all documentation as well ("make documentation"), install these:

	pkg_add -v asciidoc
	pkg_add -v doxygen

Now you can return to a normal user account and build ccnx using the
generic instructions.

You may find that you need to set JAVA_HOME, for instance to
/usr/pkg/java/openjdk7 if that is where your java lives.

On some versions of java, it may be necessary to set the java system property
java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true; the symptom is that java apps cannot connect
to ccnd.  This no longer seems to be a problem with the version
openjdk7-1.7.0.147.20110811nb2 in pkgsrc.
See http://redmine.ccnx.org/issues/100648 if you think you are seeing this.
