I don't think I've ever seen full answers to http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2008-June/003934.html so I'm hesitant to review a patch until we get a good understanding of where packagemanager is going. (In particular, an actual discussion of question 0 is still needed.) - Stephen _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
