[Sorry to have messed this up on first go around.. still not sure how I managed to get the wrong subject in to the original post]
Originall posted under subject: Subject: What do I need to install so that ~/.inputrc Which is completely unsuitable to the actual subject. Hopefully I haven't completely destroyed any chance of getting a reply. When I tried installing vbox-5.1.18 with `pkgadd -d': [The pkg from vbox site for solaris] I get this error: Oracle VM VirtualBox(i386) 5.1.18,REV=2017.03.15.16.41.114002 Oracle Corporation ## Executing checkinstall script. Checking package dependencies... ## Missing packages: ## IPS : system/library/gcc/gcc-c++-runtime or system/library/gcc-45-runtime system/library/gcc/gcc-c-runtime or system/library/gcc-45-runtime ## SVr4: SUNWPython SUNWPython-devel ## ## Please install either the IPS or SVr4 packages before installing VirtualBox. pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully Attempting to install any of IPS listed results in the above error. I tried a few earlier version of vbox back to 5.1.0 and a few inbetween. With the same results. Anyone else ran into this? Is there a known workaround? ------- ------- ---=--- ------- ------- NOTE: I very recently moved from 151_9 on hardware to hipster on the same hardware. Not an upgrade in place but a fresh install from 161030 iso. Previously on 151_9 I had been running Vbox 5.0.28 and over time had created several vms I wanted to keep. So, I kept a pair of mirred discs out of the install proceedure, imported them to retriev the vms. So I have 4 vms that I want to keep but seeminly not able to get vbox in a version compatable with hipster. Hopefully someone will have some ideas. _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
