All,
I am sponsoring this case for Laszlo (Laca) Peter of the desktop group.
I have set the timeout for Wednesday, April 21st, 2010. The case directory
contains this proposal.
This case proposes to integrate pkgbuild into a Minor release of Solaris.
pkgbuild is the build engine developed by the desktop release engineering
team to build the desktop components. It is similar to rpmbuild for linux.
Until now, the "pkg" prefix has generally been used for commands that
are part of either the SVR4 or IPS packaging systems. I'm wondering if
it's a good idea to introduce two utilities, pkgbuild and pkgtool, that
use this naming convention but are not (primarily) packaging tools.
