Import NetBSD System Package (syspkg) sypport for the base, comp, etc, games, man, misc, and text sets (i.e. all non-X11 sets). This support currently allows two make(1) targets to be executed from src/distrib/syspkg/sets: a.) `make register' will register the existing system as packages. This willl allow the version of software on the current system to be queried with PKG_DBDIR=/var/db/syspkg pkg_info and individual packages to be deleted with PKG_DBDIR=/var/db/syspkg pkg_delete <pkgname> b.) `make package' will create binary packages from the existing system (or from the contents of ${DESTDIR}, if ${DESTDIR} is set). These packages can be taken to another system, and installed with PKG_DBDIR=/var/db/syspkg pkg_add <pkgname> to update or install specific packages. The need to explicitly specify the syspkg PKG_DBDIR will be replaced with a flag for the various pkg tools in the next few days.
