Whew, I successfully updated my kitchen-server from NetBSD 10.1 to NetBSD 11.0 via the sysupgrade.

Now, I'm thinking about transforming this system, having a lot of binary packages from remote repository — to the system where each package is built locally via pkgsrc.

Since it is just a server, I don't see any problems with > 24h compile time of something like Rust of Librewolf :drgn_blush_giggle:
BTW, I didn't find an easy way (just launch one script and go to sleep) to convert the system from using remote built packages to the locally built packages :drgn_think:
So, looks like I'll use some one-liner to get list of packages where build host != my server hostname. And then rebuild and update these packages with the help of pkgsrc.
