This is slightly inconvenient, as packages may trigger dependencies, and
you may have to remove a large subset of packages for an update.

If a given package does not exist for your architecture, you may still

Ports and XFree
! There is some special magic in the OpenBSD XFree configuration files
that allows the ports tree to install imake-based applications under
/usr/local.
! As of 2.9, OpenBSD ships with XFree 4.0.3.
! If you are using a previous distribution, together with XFree binaries
! from the XFree project, you may need to apply the patch in
/usr/ports/infrastructure/patches/patch-xfree-4.0
! to a default binary XFree 4.0.x distribution for it to work with the OpenBSD
ports tree.
