I have a few questions about repository maintenance that I cannot find answers to (at least ones I can understand) in the discussion or documentation so far.
1. I created the http://pkg.sunfreeware.com:9000 repository for the x86 Companion CD packages a while back using solaris.py and it seems to work so far. Now, I have a number of updates to these packages I want to do. What is the current best procedure for updating a given package? If I want to update the IPSFWxterm package, for example, is it just pkgsend -s http://localhost:9000 send IPSFWxterm I saw the "How to replace a package ..." discussion a while back, but I am not sure that answered this question. Should I just remove the old repository and replace it using solaris.py again instead of trying to update packages one at a time? If I do that, will an end user get the new IPSFWxterm package if the do a pkg install? 2. Is there a procedure for installing and running two or more separate repositories on one server? I know I could put all packages in one repository, but would rather keep, hypothetically, SPARC and x86 packages in different repositories, say on ports 9000 and 9001 respectively. Thanks, Steve C. _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
