Manish,
If you use the JDS Common Build Environment with the SFEvim.spec file you would have automatically made a package. Since you have just used a "make install", you pretty much have to make the package by hand. For instructions on how to do this, search for "solaris package" on
google.

Good Luck
Doug

Hi All,

I downloaded the tarball and it got built in SXDE with any modifications
(using the bundled Sun Studio 11)

It has pretty looking GTK fonts and icons.

Now my question is: how do i make a .pkg out of it?
 (it is clear the
vim7.0 has no extra dependencies. a base SXDE install is enough)


Thanks
Manish

Hi Doug,

I have SXDE. Does that mean the build env is already set up on my box?

You definitely don't need the CBE to build vim 7. IIRC it simply built
out of the box with no problems. Just download it and try the usual
configure/make/make install cycle. Make sure your path
include /usr/sfw/bin and /usr/ccs/bin.

This is correct, but using the JDS CBE does the download, checks for dependent packages, compiles the source, builds a Solaris package, and installs it (Assuming the spec file is correct).
All from one command.
Sure. CBE is a good thing. However in some situations it can be
overkill. Solaris nevda/express contains all of the necessary
dependencies already - IMO the quickest/easiest way to vim happiness is
to download, make, make install.

Cheers,
