Hello, The "Developer's Reference" says in chapter 4.4.3 Packages : " Ordinary SVR4 packages can be built from the files installed into the proto area (see section 4.4.1). This is done automatically by the main makefile's all and pkg_all targets (see usr/src/Makefile) as part of a successful build. The definitions located in usr/src/pkgdefs are used to build all packages; each subdirectory contains the package definitions and a makefile fragment used to build that package. Built packages are rooted in usr/src/packages and are in the standard format. See pkgmk(1) for more information on how packages are built.
Packages are built automatically as part of your nightly(1) build if -p is included in your options. See nightly(1) and section 4.2 for more information on automating package construction as part of your automatic build. "http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/on/devref_toc/devref_4/#4_4_3_packages The README.opensolaris says in "Currently Known Issues" under Nr. 1: " 1. The sources cannot be used to generate Solaris (pkgadd(1m)) packages. " http://dlc.sun.com/osol/on/downloads/current/README.opensolaris So, what is true : Can you build packages from the ON sources, or not? AND what is important - for my humble opinion - after discussing this issue is: Someone who can alter these both files should bring them to one direction - so, both will tell the same fact -. Thanks.
