It's more or less easy for anything from anything coming from Solaris already since we can just change it. I'm a bit more worried about JRandomFramework. pkg(5) will be kind of unique in needing changes like this. I suppose that's just a cost worth paying (and clear documentation of what to do will make that easier). cheers, john _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
