This isn't something that exists today (being able to 'ping'), is it? I think I must have missed the tag thing too, what would that look like in a package definition? More generally, this sounds like it requires significant reworking of system functionality. What happens when it's upstream stuff - would we have to rewrite all that stuff too to be able to get an SMF "ping" and scan a directory for new/removed files? thanks john _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
