If you are not a developer for the Caiman project, you can ignore the
remainder of this note.
With the integration of the fixes for bug 15784, the Caiman slim_source
tree now builds pkg(5) packages automatically. The flag day for
developers is that any changes to the objects delivered in packages must
now update the manifests found in usr/src/pkg/manifests. The
slim_source tree will temporarily be building both SVR4 and pkg(5)
packages in parallel until we have implemented direct delivery to
Release Engineering of our pkg(5) packages, so please ensure that any
packaging changes are reflected in both usr/src/pkg and usr/src/pkgdefs
until the SVR4 package build is removed.
Once you've built a repository as part of your source tree, you can
start a repository service with:
/usr/lib/pkg.depotd -d $CODEMGR_WS/packages/$MACH/nightly-nd/repo.redist
-p <port> &
To use packages from your repository in a Distribution Constructor image
build, set your default authority as:
<pkg_repo_default_authority>
<main url="http://localhost:<port>" authname="install-nightly"/>
</pkg_repo_default_authority>
and configure appropriate additional repositories (such as the /dev
repository) using pkg_repo_addl_authority tags.
This is a direct adaptation of the OS/Net consolidation's package build
structure; notes on the implementation can be found in
usr/src/pkg/README.pkg.
