You should also update all other CI files to exclude the new netbsd path.

Good point, let me do that update.

Should be done in the latest commit.

Is this PR finished? If so, do you wanna note down in this thread if there are any specific dependencies or instructions for compiling on NetBSD.

Just to save me the trouble later when doing testing.

Any links to VM images of current NetBSD release would also be helpful.

I would recommend you include the README.md changes in this PR also if you don't mind, it would speed things along when I have time to look through everything and do testing. Since I will likely be pushing a new release once this is merged.

I have added an updated README.md with the instructions for NetBSD.

You can find the VM image which I have used from here

but if you want to load it up in a Virtualbox like environment, the ISO from NetBSD should help out
