+### Please describe the problem.
+Hi!
+I just tried to build git-annex through cabal on OpenBSD and encountered some issues.
+
+First I had to install a certain commit of network-info that fixes some compile-time errors (https://github.com/jystic/network-info/issues/6)
+Then I had to disable WebDAV in git-annex because DAV wouldn't build (I don't use webdav anyway)
+
+After this git-annex still failed to build, though configure works.
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+Compiling on openbsd through cabal
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+git-annex-5.20131130 on OpenBSD 5.4
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
