Going back to the comments about Nexenta build system: 1. What ever happened to running Debian/Linux packages natively (or by wrapper)??
2. Can we build from Nexenta in providing "Debian" packages for Schillix, SXCR, and Belenix??? 3. What is being done currently with colleges, universities, and organizations?? Isn't NetBSD doing work in providing packages/ports to Solaris using the NetBSD build system?!? We seem to have lost track of the previous work that was being done to provide Debian packages to Solaris. There was the Linux/FreeBSD style wrapper for running Linux packages on Solaris and then the native source compiles of the same package base used for the Debian packages (17,000->20,200+ packages). We can take all of the current GNU source code as a start and see what builds and doesn't build using the Sun Studio 11 compiler or GCC. That would be a start for someone. Everything else starts to become personal taste.... ~ Ken Mays __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
