Hi Mary,

As it's become apparent that removing that comment and fixing 15507 is not the right thing to do yet, I'm not going to address any issues relating to what packages are or are not safe to remove from the lists.

Thanks,
Keith

Along the same line, there are users who want to build customize images and ran into problems if they somehow included SUNWslim-utils/SUNWgui-install/text-install in the list of packages to be installed on live system after install.

This will at least alleviate some of the issues found in the following bug"

https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=15283

Can we clarify and put those install/miniroot related packages together and put comments to warn user they are for install use purpose and will be removed from the system after install.

Hi Keith,

In usr/src/cmd/slim-install/finish/install-finish, packages names are
specified without the pkg:/ prefix.  To make things consistent
everywhere, I think it would be a good idea to add it here too.

    264     if textinstall_exists():
265 pkg_remove_list = ['SUNWslim-utils', 'system/install/text-install']
    266     else:
    267         # GUI installer
    268         pkg_remove_list = ['SUNWslim-utils', 'SUNWgui-install']

I also agree with Glenn's comment about adding a comment
in the manifests to emphasis that
the SUNWcsd and SUNWcs packages are required to be explicitly
specified in the package list.

Thanks,

Hi all,

I'd like to request a review of the following changes to DC and AI default manifests that change the packages listed from the old "SUNW" names to the current hierarchical pkg names:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~kemitche/pkg_rename

Associated bugs:
https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=15507
https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=13447
https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=13446

Testing done:
I have built DC images of all types (Live, Text, AI - x86 and SPARC) with the given package lists. Additionally, I verified that installs of the x86 images work (including a VMC run using the AI image and updated AI manifest), and Mary verified that the SPARC images install as expected.

Additional notes:
All packages are prefixed with "pkg:/" so as to 'root' them (forcing pkg to install a package with that exact name). This is necessary to avoid name clashes (e.g., attempting to install "network/dns/bind" causes pkg to error out with messages such as:

kemit...@kemobile-work->text_install 0 $ pkg info -r network/dns/bind

pkg: 'network/dns/bind' matches multiple packages

    pkg://opensolaris.org/service/network/dns/bind

    pkg://opensolaris.org/network/dns/bind

Note that I used "pkg:/" with a single slash, and no publisher name. This is so that the pkg name is restricted, but not the publisher.
