Hi! ----
A set of tarballs containing an OS/Net version of ksh93 [1] (based on ksh93r+_alpha_20060724 [2]) is now available from http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/2006-08-05/ These tarballs are intended to be installed over an existing OpenSolaris i386 or SPARC installation and provide ksh93r+_alpha_20060724 as /usr/bin/ksh93 for testing and evaluation purposed ONLY. Please report any problems/errors/bugs/comments to the ksh93-integration mailinglist (see [4]). Install instructions: (please check http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/2006-08-05/ for any updates/changes) 1. Download the tarball: + i386/AMD64: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 + SPARC: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 2. Verify the Md5 checksum: + i386/AMD64: MD5 (ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)= 37ec2c4ae6c4ac8815b0eb6dff8e541f + SPARC: MD5 (ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)= 148e8daf69ca5e9822777b9ce77f6353 3. Login as user "root": 4. Change directory to / and unpack the tarball with /usr/bin/tar using the "xvof" option ("o" is very important to set the file ownership to "root") Example for i386/AMD64: % cd /tmp % /usr/sfw/bin/wget http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 % /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5 ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 MD5(ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)= 37ec2c4ae6c4ac8815b0eb6dff8e541f % cd / % sync ; sync % bzcat /tmp/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 | tar -xvof - Example for SPARC: % cd /tmp % /usr/sfw/bin/wget http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 % /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5 ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 MD5(ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)= 148e8daf69ca5e9822777b9ce77f6353 % cd / % sync ; sync % bzcat /tmp/ksh93_integration_20060805_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 | tar -xvof - Notes: * libcmd.so is replaced with a version which includes the ksh93 builtin commands * The tarball was simply created from an OS/Net B37 proto/ subdir via collecting the files listed by % find $ROOT '!' -type d | sed 's/.*\/root_sparc\///' | egrep "/(lib|llib-l)(cmd|ast|shell |dll)|/(ksh|krsh|rksh|pfksh)|include/ast" | egrep -v cmdutils * The tarballs do not provide a manual page for ksh93. Please use the manual page for ksh93r[3] in the meantime. * 64bit binaries will be shipped with a later version Links/References: [1]=ksh93-integration/migration project home page: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/ [2]=ksh93r+_alpha_20060724 release annoucement: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2006-July/000571.html [3]=ksh93r manual page: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/docs/ksh93r/man/man1/sh/ [4]=ksh93-integration mailinglist: http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/ksh93-integration-discuss/ ; please subscribe before posting!!
