Hi Dago,

That depends. For gnulinks the packages are completely different so I would
just make a copy of trunk to branches/solaris9. For other packages which share
almost all of the code you may add the PACKAGING_PLATFORMS and use conditional
assignments. If in doubt, branch for Solaris 9 as the changes are usually not
needed in Solaris 10 and essentially the focus is going forward to 11.
I see. I disabled solaris 9 from the trunk package again.
Could you explain like to a newbie "copy of trunk to branches/solaris9"
1) is solaris9 the "official" name we use?
2) by copy do you mean "cd pencsw/binutils" and there just "cp trunk
branches/solaris9" ?
3) how do I work on this branch when I'm on solaris9 machines?
I understand the above procedure is some sort of svn shortcut and
creates a branch for each package. I thought we had some kind of "tree"
setup.
Thank you, I do not want to make errors.
