At the time of writing this manual the sources I was aware of were
- http://www.riscpkg.org/pkg/Unstable - This is the main packageing
list. It is recommended that you always have this source in your list.
- http://www.riscos.info/packages/pkg/autobuilt - This contains a useful
list of ported applications, games, libraries and the latest GCC compiler.
- http://www.netsurf-browser.org/downloads/development/riscpkg/packages
- This contains the latest development build of the NetSurf browser.
