Just updated my 8.1_STABLE from 2019Q2 to 2019Q3 and did sudo pkgin install doas followed by creating doas.conf in /usr/pkg/etc and doas pkgin remove sudo 🤣

The update brought me one problem though 🙁
...waiting for a follow-up binary build as nearly all GUI apps are broken 😢 ... libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 not found 😞 Not good...

    pin lol

        Jay yeah, I know I could easily do

        $ su
# pkgin remove sudo
# pkgin install doas
# vim /usr/pkg/etc/doas.conf

        but, found it hilarious to run doas remove sudo instead 😉

        Although, the issue with libgdk-2.so.0 is really pissing me off 😠
        I still remember the issue with libstdc++.so.7earlier this year... its not like I'm running CURRENT, I'm on the STABLE branch and my apps don't work 😧
        Just for the sake of it, I did install a Qt app just to check... it works. Gtk is broken 👿

        EDIT: problem solved

          Back on topic...
          Could any of you people running doas on NetBSD confirm or refute the implementation of the persist option?
          I have to type the password for every command...
          Or, maybe I'm doing it wrong?!?

          # doas configuration file

permit persist :wheel
permit nopass keepenv root

            yes, it's the expected behaviour, since NetBSD's tty(4) doesn't support the TIOCCHKVERAUTH ioctl like OpenBSD's, hence there's no way to get persist working on it but rewriting the relevant part of doas.c from scratch.
            persist doesn't work on Linux, illumos and FreeBSD either for the very same reason 😉
