Hello,
Before producing webrev for the progress changes which we are proposing.
I was trying to make few tests to make sure that our bits are functional
and working. During first smoke test on the unchanged IPS from the
changeset 425 I found a problem, since I couldn't use pkg(1) anymore:
# pkg list SUNWlang-ru
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 1488, in ?
ret = main_func()
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 1450, in main_func
return list_inventory(img, pargs)
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 167, in list_inventory
img.load_catalogs(progress.NullProgressTracker())
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/pkg/client/image.py", line
1039, in load_catalogs
self.cache_catalogs()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/pkg/client/image.py", line
963, in cache_catalogs
catalog.Catalog.read_catalog(cache,
AttributeError: type object 'Catalog' has no attribute 'read_catalog'
# pkg uninstall SUNWlang-ru
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 1488, in ?
ret = main_func()
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 1456, in main_func
return uninstall(img, pargs)
File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 534, in uninstall
img.load_catalogs(progresstracker)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/pkg/client/image.py", line
1039, in load_catalogs
self.cache_catalogs()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/pkg/client/image.py", line
963, in cache_catalogs
catalog.Catalog.read_catalog(cache,
AttributeError: type object 'Catalog' has no attribute 'read_catalog'
are there any steps required to have functional pkg(1) from the trunk on
top of the:
# cat /etc/release
