I'd say it doesn't actually. Look at the work you had to do in class action scripts and postinstall script to get the recent network drivers you did working properly.

How it doesn't scale properly to other packages delivering similar stuff. -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
