As I play with openpkg towards the goal of deploying it on production systems, one issue that's come up is what the bootstrap touches outside the openpkg root dir. I built the openpkg-1.1.1-1.1.1.sparc64-solaris2.8-oo.sh and corresponding .rpm from source.
I noticed that things like /etc/shells, user accounts, /etc/rc?.d symlinks, etc. are handled inside this script. It also appears that as long as I run as non-root, none of those actions will be performed. However, if I want to customize the install (e.g. I want only the /etc/rc?.d stuff), what's the best strategy? Is there a list of what root privs are required for when running the above .sh script? Or is my best bet to read through the script? Is there anything different in terms of file permissions that might result from not running as root? (I'm using an acct 'opkg' which I specified in the --user= argument when running openpkg*src.sh).
