I don't think that is necessary to have separate packages. In the code that I cited in my detailed mail, you can add a run-time detection of the release of Solaris on which it actually runs and act accordingly. I can provide an easy patch , preferably for 0.18.1. If we validate this, we can submit the patch upstream. -- Peter _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
