Solaris Packing broken
----------------------
Key: DIRSERVER-1454
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1454
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: Solaris 10
Reporter: Igor Galić
First off, both the x86 and the sparc package advertise themselves as x86 --
which isn't too bad, since Solaris' packaging couldn't care less, but might be
confusing to the careful admin who installs the package.
Next, the pre-install script is broken on Solaris 10, since Solaris 10's ``id''
doesn't know either of the ``-u'' or ``-n'' switches. One could evade this by
using /usr/bin/xpg4/id -- but who guarantees that's installed?
``getent'' is always installed. Unless you managed to break the libc/Sun-Core
installation. It should also work on all (Unix) platforms, so here's the patch:
--- preinstall 2009-12-23 04:51:32.000000000 +0100
+++ preinstall0 2010-01-04 12:41:03.780839048 +0100
