Hi, The x11/xsnow package uses the very old 1.42 version of xsnow from its original author (I believe it's something like 20 years old) which have issues with some desktop environments.
Development of xsnow has recently been carried out by Willem Vermin and I've been in touch with him so that the soon-to-be-released version 3.1.8 should compile properly out-of-the-box on NetBSD. The current xsnow Web site is: https://ratrabbit.nl/ratrabbit/xsnow/ Time to update pkgsrc?
