Third thing that I find ingenious in both `inst` and `swinstall` on HP-UX is hierarchical namespaces: on both IRIX and HP-UX one is able to package software hierarchichally, for example (on IRIX:) eoe.sw.bind - "execution only environment.bind" - a "dist" eoe.sw.bind.sw - one of the "subsystems" eoe.sw.bind.man eoe.sw.bind.hea eoe.sw.bind.libs eoe.sw.bind.libs64 (on HP-UX:) # BIND 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.09.27.01 BIND BIND.BIND-ENG-A-MAN 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.09.27.01 BIND man pages BIND.BIND-PRG 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.10.03.01 BIND development files BIND.BIND-SERVER 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.10.03.01 named and related binaries BIND.BIND-SHLIBS 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.10.03.01 BIND shared object libraries BIND.BIND-STARTUP 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.10.03.01 Startup/shutdown scripts BIND.BIND-UTILS 9.3.2-P1_REV=2006.10.03.01 named client binaries This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
