Is "openbsd-ntpd" the same thing as OpenNTPD? [0]
As for openbsd-netcat, this was discussed on guix-devel recently, and we
learned that OpenBSD does not provide a portable release of their netcat
client. I don't think it would be appropriate for us to re-package
Debian's unmaintained port of this software. [1]
I looked at `apt-cache search openbsd`, which searches my Debian package
cache for packages related to OpenBSD. I *think* that there isn't
anything packaged with an "openbsd-" name that OpenBSD offers a portable
release of, but I'm not sure about openbsd-inetd.
On the other hand, they explicitly provide portable releases of things
like OpenNTPD, OpenSSH, LibreSSL, and now acme-client.
They really pushed the issue with this "acme-client". Maybe they should
have kept the old name, letskencrypt, for the sake of all the GNU /
Linux distros :)
