In regard to: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Build essential, hput via...:
How ever I have read threads about a `build essential' pkg available
for oi/hipster I can't seem to find anything pkg search that has a
name like that.
Either
pfexec pkg install build-essential
(if you've set up the necessary role) or
sudo pkg install build-essential
if you prefer sudo. Keep in mind that if you just installed and you
haven't done an update yet, you *must*
{sudo|pfexec} pkg update
first.
build-essential won't get you *every* development-related package, but
it's enough to get started.
I think build-essential is a consolidation, not a package, so that may
be why it wasn't showing up in your search.
Also, if you wanted a GUI, you probably want
pfexec pkg install mate_install
pfexec pkg uninstall mate_install
(you don't need to keep mate_install after its pulled in all the GUI
stuff, so 'mate_install' can be safely removed once its installed its
dependencies).
