Completely agree, and we hope to build out the packages repositories over time and start filling in the missing pieces of software that people find useful. We absolutely don't expect our users to have to build software themselves. If you are interested in helping out, you might consider joining the SFE initiative to help contribute to pkg.opensolaris.org http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=1212558034.663.40.camel%40tecra&forum_name=pkgbuild-sfe-devel Glynn _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
