Offline pkg_add

Hi everybody:

I have no good internet connection at home, so, I wonder if there is a
way to carry full NetBSD packages in my pen drive or a CD to install
them offline there.

I want to install KDevelop and KOffice at home, those packages are not
available in the distribution CDs and I cannot get them from internet
in my home box.

Thanks in advance!

Hi:

I tried to use pkg_add directly from ftp.netbsd.org in order to
download and install kdevelop in my work machine, but I'm getting a lot
of "autoload of dependency xxx failed!!" messages.

How can I deal with it?

Best regards,

Ernesto
