That time you told #pkgsrc to make a few packages and went to bed, and when you woke up you found out you issued it from /usr/pkgsrc and it was building and installing EVERYTHING. #NetBSD

@satchmoz how long did that take?

@loke I didn't let it finish. When I woke up it was waste deep into building multiple versions of QT and I couldn't figure out why for a second.

When I realized what it was going on I spammed CRTL-C.

@satchmoz Can't say I've ever done that one in over a decade of using #pkgsrc.

@ND3JR Definitely not a prouder moment.

@satchmoz *plays the pkgsrc-erer's Apprentice*

At least each of your ^C didn't cause it to just spawn two more. 😅
