Dear Joseph, I sent you this reply, but I suspect that due to technical problems you did not recieve my response. I'll send it again.
---- Hello Joseph, So you got OpenPKG compiling, good. I hope you mean that you bootstrapped it successfully and now have a working installation. I assume you ran the bootstrap shell script like: $ sh openpkg-20020312-20020312.src.sh --prefix=/cw --user=cw --group=cw and then as root: # sh openpkg-20020312-20020312.<YourArchitecture&OS>.sh If you did this, then under /cw you should see the subdirectories and files README bin etc info libexec man share web RPM cgi include lib local sbin var Tell me if you have gotten this far, because I don't know exactly what you mean by 'the files are currently sitting there uninstalled.' By the way, when I get stuck starting a new OpenPKG instance, I usually reach for the quick reference which conveniently explains the above steps and a few more in about three screenfulls. Particularly helpful are the paragraphs 'Bootstrapping OpenPKG from Scratch', 'Prepare Your Shell Environment', and 'To Install OpenPKG Packages.' http://www.openpkg.org/doc/quickref/openpkg.txt I hope this helps, and thanks for using OpenPKG.
