Thats what the SUNWmysqlS package is for, it is intended to be almost equivalent to the source rpm. However rpm is both a build and package system the SVR4 package system isn't. The README.sfw file in the package does tell you how configure was run. In general you should find SUNW*S packages for much (but not all) of the things in /usr/sfw. -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
