That's lovely; you (plural) will phase out a stable packaging subsystem in favor of a Python-cobbled together experiment that explicitly DOES NOT ALLOW SCRIPTING. I'd just like someone to tell me just how I'm supposed to remove my Oracle database with an IPS package. And if anyone writes "SMF", then I'd like to know just how exactly will I run an SMF method to remove a database, when IPS doesn't allow scripting. In closing, I'm convinced that IPS in his current shape or form is one of the biggest technical mistakes in the history of SunOS. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
