To me, if the solaris svr4 pkg tools were open, and paired with pkgsrc, and the pkgbuild tool mentioned here earlier, then that would be a great system for an OpenSolaris distribution and make for great compatability with Official Solaris releases. But, for now, yes what you suggest sounds about right... -- Shawn Walker, Software and Systems Analyst [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://binarycrusader.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
