I have been only sort of following the list lately so I ask your
indulgence with a few questions that are hopefully brief and easy.

It looks like 5.2.15 is actually released and it's ok to update the
pkgsrc package.  If not, just tell me and I'll wait.

As I read NEWS, and ignoring mac installer issues, 5.2.15 relative to
.14 is a lot of fixes and two new printers, but nothing structurally
different, so one would expect the packaging update process to be
uninteresting.  Is that a correct read?

I have been seeing messages about splitting off some cups things, but I
am assuming that this did not happen in 5.2.15 and is for 5.3 or later.
Is that a correct impression?

I am building on a new machine (netbsd-8 amd64) where I put my build
directory into a RAM/swap-backed /tmp.  I have that set to allow 12GB,
which seems pretty large for building things.  I can even build rust
with this!  gutenprint built fine, but 'make check' ran out of space.  I
don't remember this, but before the build was in a filesystem with over
100GB avaalable.  Do you think I have a problem, or is make check really
expected to take that much space?

Thanks,
Greg
