Mhhh... Ok... but I am not sure whether it makes sense to split it between "SUNWcsu" and "SUNWesu" ([1]) since the code lives in libcmd.so.1 which is already (even now, ksh93-integration update2 only delivers bugfixes in this case) in the "SUNWcsl" package (= "SUNWcsu"'s counterpart for shared libraries). From the technical viewpoint it's possible... [1]=Just curious: Why was this split originally made, e.g. why are the basic POSIX/SUS commands split over multiple packages (sounds like a good way to cause trouble for script writers) ? ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;)
