----------------------------------------------------------------
So prior to installing the Solaris 1.5.3 package, I ripped apart the package
using pkgtrans and took a look at the pkgmap. By convention, packages that
install content in /opt should use /var/opt to install their var content.
Current, ADS has this:
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3 0744 root root
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default 0744 root root
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/conf 0744 root root
1 f none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/conf/apacheds.conf 0644 root root 1400
55365 1216185769
1 f none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/conf/log4j.properties 0644 root root
1889 27319 1216185769
1 f none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/conf/server.xml 0644 root root 10871
23013 1216185769
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/ldif 0744 root root
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/log 0744 root root
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/partitions 0744 root root
1 d none /var/lib/apacheds-1.5.3/default/run 0744 root root
It should really be using /var/opt/apacheds as stated by the filesystem(5) man
page.
Other points:
- version numbers are generally not a good idea. If it is required, it would
be better to layer it: /opt/apacheds/1.5.3/blah, /var/opt/apacheds/1.5.3/blah,
...
- Files that change shouldn't be type f, they should be type e (editable).
otherwise pkgchk will break.
